Hello,
First coin is a drachm of Khusru II minted at Veh-Ardashir (in Irak, mintmark "WH"). I'm not sure about the regnal year but it seems to be written five.

Second one is a drachm of Khusru II as well, but minted in the sassasian province of Meshan (in Irak too, mintmark "MY"). The date is hard to read so probably an early type regarding the style of the portrait
