I'm having some problems with these two coins.

Undated-Annam-Coin-And-German-State?-|-Japan-And-Netherlands

The coin on the left is from Annam. I'm trying to date it. I can't figure out what period it is from. It's definitely from a ruler of the 19th or 20th century.

The second coin is, I believe, from a German state. It's from 1826. The back is so worn down that there's nothing visible on it.

Any help is appreciated.

The cash-style coin is actually from Japan, the common "kan ei tsuu hou" type. They were made from 1636 to 1860. See here. An expert in the series can probably help narrow down the date, but such diagnostics rely on minute differences in the shape of the characrters.
