It looks like coins from Phokaia in Ionia with the head of a seal to left. The weight indicates a Tetartemorion or 1/96 stater, which I didn't find for this type.

Here a 1/48 stater: https://www.asiaminorcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=135&pid=1115#top_display_media

If I don't find it this does not automatically mean that it is unlisted  ;). But it could be so  :).
