I recently bought a couple pounds of world coins from a dealer and haven't been able to identify these two coins. Can someone help me? Thanks.

the first one needs more lighting, but from the lirrle I can discern it is a Britisch copper coin, with Britannia on the reverse, and an effigy of KG3 on the obverse. In particular, it looks like the effigy used in the 1806 series. Depending upon size, it might be a fathing, halfpenny, or a penny. The British didn't denominate their coins back then, and your pic has no scale.

The second one: I don't know, but it reminds me of a "temple token" or souvenir piece. I recall a similar pic in CCF in the not-too-distant past.
