There are a couple of specimens I'd like a second opinion on . The first I take either to be a Heart and Clubs or just simply an oddly marked Heart and Dart ( collare not deeply marked implying the former ) but poss the H&D


The Second Looks like The Uncertain  or less likely Rustic the links below are useful but  there is a little wear on the transverse lines
