Any value other than scrap to these? 1624 Polish? and 1 other undated English?

    Hi , i don't think either are English coins.The 2nd picture does look a little like Charles ll but it isn't a UK reverse.Good luck , i'm sure somebody knows what they are.Quite possible the two headed bird appears on both coins there.

    Definitely not scrap but nice old coins from the middle ages.

    The first coin looks like Austria Vienna Ferdinand II 1624 3 Kreuzer,
    with the double eagle and the arms of Vienna.

    The second coin looks like Poland Johann Casimir 1649-1688.
    Obverse: IO:CASIM.D.G REX POL.ET.SVE.
    Reverse: (VI A T) GRO ARGEN:SEX.REG.POL.ET.SVE.
    No date

    I can not read the denomination of the coin.
    These types of coins were sometimes made in several sizes, so the coin size would help.

    Here's someone selling a similar coin:

    The Poland Johann Casimir coin might be a worn 6 Grossus (Groschen).
