I believe the first coin is a paisa of the Sikh Empire in India, second series, Gurmukhi legends. Did not find a match, partly because of wear on the coin, but it's roughly similar to some varieties of KM #7, undated, from 1822-1830.

The second coin is a "bull & horseman" jital from northern historical India (including parts of Pakistan and Afghanistan). Millions of these were made, generally between 900-1300 AD, by numerous rulers, in dozens of varieties. It is often difficult to determine the variety. Here are a few good good sources of information.
