Yes, or may be Half Pennies - need the diameter
as they had similar designs and only diameter tells which it is.

So both are half pennies?
where could I find them in the catalogue?
and do you know if of any value? I’m guessing not because of the condition.

First coin may be either of these ...

https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces13118.html 1740-1754
Though I think yours is the first of those,
as the II lettering [GEORGIVS II REX] is in the same position.
Whereas on the second coin the II is further back.
Similarly if more could be seen of the reverse, then the branch that
Britannia is holding is one side or the other of the A letter in her name;
namely to the right would make it the first coin or to the left for the other.
Second coin is most likely this one ...

Value for either is very low due to condition.
