I can read FIPO on the left coin, so I think that's Amphipolis with Artemis riding bull to right.

No, I can't, I'm not an expert on Greek coins. Maybe someone else can help?

I believe both Thessalonica and Amphipolis are good candidates for the bigger coin, even though my preference goes to Thessalonica. I seem to see an A close to bull's horns (the ending letter of qESSA) and an good resemblance with the specimen #1163 in Lindgren European Mints.
