Both are 'Abbasid, types of al-Kufah in Iraq, c. AH 160s. Neither has a legible mint or date but the name of the caliph al-Mahdi can be read in the margin of the 2nd coin. The 1st coin with star above and 'adl below matches attributes of coins dated 160. The 2nd coin with barakah below is typical of 165-167.
