Hello to everyone. I'm assuming that these strips are early Japanese currency or scrip. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Date? Denomination? Many thanks.

Silver 1 Monme certificates circa 1865. Also called "hansatsu".
The one on the right is issued by Nara.
The one on the left is from Kishū, I think.
