    Those will take some major research but just by style/design (very ultra crude standing figures and crosses) I say German States 1050 to 1200.

    Can this be Byzantine coins?

    On first coins I can see Jesus with stick in left hand and someting unknown in right hand.

    On second coin I can also see Jesus with stick in left handa and cross in right hand.

    What do you think?

    I think Byzantine-- or better yet, Serbian-- is a possibility. But you also have to remember that many medieval european countries imitated the Byzantine-styled facing ruler holding cross ion their silver coins.
