  • You got the first one right - it's a 5 centime coin from Belgium. Not knowing what the catalog says, my guess would be that the legends of the coin come in two different versions and that you have the French one. Value: less than $1.

    The second one confuses me, but I'm absolutely convinced it's not from Germany. If there is a chance the two "indian head dresses" actually comprise a double-headed eagle, then you have a 2 heller coin from Austria. Value in XF: $3.
