Both coins are from Egypt.

The first coin is 1/40 ghirsh KM#287. By the way: the regnal year is 32, which makes the date 1906 AD. The H mintmark is indeed from the Heaton Mint, Birmingham.
The second coin is 5/10 ghirsh KM#291. The regnal year is 11, which makes the year 1885 AD.

Thank you, I wouldn't know where to start looking for them. I was thinking they might be from Turkey
