The coin is 1.13 g, 19 mm and about .25 mm thick. Thanks in advance for any help id-ing this coin.
The pictures are so dark, it's tough to make out any detail.
It looks like it's a Hungary Denar from between 1500-1600, but I can't get more specific than that.

Hello!
the coin is from Hungary, I. Ulászló.

Hopefully these are a little easier to see. I will check out Hungary Denar listings. Thank you.
I think Krezga got it right on your first coin. That second one (while still a Hungarian denar) appears to be slightly different.

The pictures are the two sides of the same coin. I glanced through the listings in the catalog and could not find one that matched. I found only one that had a Crown, but it was quite different. The coin is copper or bronze. The denars seem to be primarily silver.
I get that the two pictures together are front and back. But you posted two sets of pictures that are clearly different coins. The original coin has cuts in it while the second one does not. There are also two different backs.

It's possible the coin is made out of billon. If it was a poor alloy, it may have had much more copper than silver.

So sorry. You are absolutely right. I need to identify the second coin as well, but hopefully the attached pics are clearer on the first.

Hello again!

I already linked the first coin.

the second one:

later I can take photos from catalog, because on numista it is no pictures for this coin.

​Then this definitely looks correct for your coin. The back side is an eagle with it's wings spread.
This would be the correct orientation of the coin:

Thank you so much for these identifications. Am I right in seeing the mintmark as A-B?
