    Both look to be Alexandrian billon tetradrachms. I'm on my phone right now so can't get further than that.

    Both are tetradrachms of Alexandria.

    The first of Aurelian, year 4, Elpis reverse, Emmett 3936. The second one is of Philip I (Philip the Arab), year 4, Dikaiosyne reverse. Emmett 3477.

    Looks like the Aurelian is quite a rare variety?
