The copper one is a little larger than a nickel, the silver one is half-dime size.

Any help is greatly appreciated! =)

The smaller coin is a Kharub of Tunisia. Looks like KM#49, AH1167 or 1167/8 overdate.

On the copper, the lion-and-sun is often used by Iran, but I haven't been able to find a specific match for this type.
