The one with the hole is a Chinese coin. The other I can't make out. I'm guessing a coin. Picture is a little blurry

This coin is from Israel. it's a 5 Agora. I can't read the date on your coin it's too blurry still, but the date is on the bottom of the side with the 5 but this type of these coins are from 1960 to 1975, you should be able to figure out the date from the link below.

I don't think they use the Agora coinage an longer but instead they use the Shekel now.

5 Agorot - Israel ? Numista

Also your Chinese coin photo is very very blurry and there's no way to determine date, etc. unless the photo is very clear so it is in focus when enlarged so it can be compared to photos of other Chinese coins etc.
