the first is too corroded for me to interpret.
the second's face might resemble some of the fat emperors with beards and big necks in the 284 AD and later section here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_...man_emperors

Your second coin is

Maximianus
A.D. 305- 306
quarter-follis
MAXIMIANVS AVG; laureate head right.
GENIO POPVLI ROMANI; Genius standing left, holding patera and cornucopiae.
In ex. SIS
RIC VI Siscia 169b


compare with the coin below, which is similar except it has a longer obverse legend.
