    The smaller coin is supposed a coin from Fengtien Province "dated" 1903. The other coin is supposedly from Sichuan Province "dated" 1906. Both are not genuine.

    I would ask your money back if I were you.

    Both have the fabric of modern struck Chinese counterfeits. :(

    unfortunately I tend to agree with @TypeCoin971793 . The dragon design does not seem to conform to the expected design.

    It is unfortunately extremely common for Chinese counterfeiters to create modern fantasies, before buying a proper catalogue I made this mistake a few times too. I would advise looking at this page at Scott Semans World Coins:

    https://coincoin.com/seCC9.htm

    which includes a list of the most common variants, most rarer variants have the same dragons in their design.
