Welcome to the site..
That first one looks more like a cat, don't think it's a dog.
Second pic looks like a guy riding some kind of fish...

Here's your images a bit sharper, and with much smaller file sizes.

I think DizzyDigger is right. A cat and man riding a dolphin. Maybe a coin.

Hello there.
This is a vintage souvenir medallion from the Greek Cycladian Island of Delos. On one side one of the Delos' Lions and on the other either a cupid riding a dolphin or maybe the mythical poet and singer Arion, that was saved by a dolphin after beign kidnapped by pirates and thrown overboard...
A product of the 60's or 70's, brass I think with artificial, chemical verdigris patina.

Another possiblity of the man on the dolphin:
In Greek mythology, Taras, the son of the Greek sea god Poseidon, was rescued from a shipwreck by a dolphin sent by his father.
