These are probably common coins, but I have virtually no knowledge of ancient coins and don't even know where to start.
Also, I'm not sure what the one on the right is made of.
For size reference, the coin on the right is about the size of a dime.
Thank you kindly!

I'm not sure of the first one. The second looks like Constantine II, though I can't make out the full inscription on the obverse. It fhould read: CONSTANTINIVS IVN NOB C. The reverse is GLORIA EXERCITVS, with the mint mark of SMTSB (Thessalonica) Ric VII #199.

Thanks t0rress! I didn't think it was much of anything it appears that these have some value after all.
