    These are my last two medievals, please help what could they be. Can't even tell which way to look at them. Will never again buy medievals, what a nightmare
    trying to attribute those.

    Perhaps a shield with a horse rider on this one?
    13 mm, 0.450 g

    and this is the last one, seems to be silver, the reverse is very worn:

    7 mm, 0.503 g

    I think I found the second one:D:
    AR Damma (Qandhari Dirham)
    Habbari dynasty, Coin Amirs of Sind

    Don't know which Amir, perhaps it is anonymous

    The first one is likely Austrio-Hungarian with a coat of arms on the obverse (second picture), which should be rotated 90 degrees to the right. 1400s - 1600s. The second one may be Middle Eastern or Indian.

    Obverse may be similar to this Ferdinand I Hungary Denar:

    Medieval coins are a bit tricky to attribute, but over time they're quite interesting to learn about. Not nearly as nice as Greek or Roman, but still some interesting historical pieces, and beautiful in their own way.
