These coins are of approximately the same size and heft. About 1.5cm diameter and 3mm thickness

First is a Roman "Fallen Horseman" type:

They are common as dirt; the ancient equivalent of the LMC.

Second is either from the Kushan empire (India, Pakistan, Afghanistan) or a kingdom imitating them. Probably too worn to get specific.
