I have these two oddments in my collection and wondered if anyone had something similar or can shed light on what they are:
the smaller is
size 30.70mm
thickness 3.26 mm
weight 19.66g
and is made of lead or pewter

the second is lighter and appears to be copper coated with silver coloured metal
weight 12.26g
thickness 2.50mm
size 33.70mm
