The first item is a token and not a coin -
and it is from UK not SA - it is called a 'spade' guinea -
based on the shield shape on a real gold coin.
Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins

The second item is a medallion to commemorate the visit to South Africa in 1925 of Edward, Prince of Wales, who was later to become King Edward VIII.
