Hi I got a swap request and I wanted to ask if those 2 coins are worth 45$. My swappartner from romania says they are in xf- condition and a good bargain. Please help.
If they were XF, $45 is a good bargain.
If they were VF, then $45 is a little too much.
I would put them at F or F-.
Justification:
On the obverse of the 1 Leu, there is almost no hair or beard detail, and on the reverse, the girls face and dress detail is very worn.
Similarly for the 2 Lei, although this is in a little better condition.
That would be how I would grade a UK coin of similar age, but feel free to disagree, as I may be being a little harsh.

I'm not an expert in any kind of coins, but I reckon I'm good at research and will do my best to help. Feel free to tell me my identifications/valuations/gradings are wrong. It's the only way I'll learn.
Thank you for your fast responses and correct opinions.
Yes of course i know that they are massively overpriced and scrap. I just wanted to post a example of an blatant scam attempt from a user that also like to snitch.
