    Can someone please identify this first coin and maybe even give me a value on both. Thanks

    I have searched all over the internet for this coin

    This one is an 1892 comemorative half dollar. I can get better pics on this if needed

    :cool:
    The first item looks like a token with Egyptian symbols, similar to this one:

    Egyptian medal from the 1946 Western film "Duel in the Sun"
    The medal appears to be about the size of a US silver dollar.
    These medals were produced in the 1920's, after the discovery of King Tut's tomb
    made news all over the world.

    See my website "Movie Coins" for more details on the medal in the film.

    The second item is a United States Columbian Exposition (Chicago) commemorative half dollar.
    It is one of the commonest US commemorative half dollars.
    The current worth would depend on the coin's condition, and better photographs would be needed to judge that.

    Yeah the first one is a token, and normally from what i seen tokens arent really worth anything, it looks like at the top of the token you can see where the piece of metal used to be for a chain or string, second coin no idea!
