Third from the bottom may be Kassander, with reclining lion reverse, from the Pella or Amphipolis mint.

Very quickly / I'll take a shot- you can look on wildwinds for full attribution:

3. Constantine I / Genius standing front, looking left, holding patera and cornucopiae.

4. Valentinian II/Victory walking left, holding trophy on shoulder and dragging captive behind her.

5. I would guess Constantius II /Fallen Horseman reverse

6. I believe that's Antoninus Pius on the Reverse

6 is likely Thessalonica, Tiberius/Livia RPC 1568. Looks like traces of the greek letters theta and epsilon first letters of city name by her hair/forehead. I have one but poor condition. Here's one on RPC Roman Provincial Coinage site.

7 Greek, likely Macedonian Kingdom, Heracles/forepart of lion?

It would be great fun to find ancient coins with a metal detector, the local laws should be considered. It's also fun to try and attribute ancient coins but when they are very worn with few details, it's often difficult if not impossible. There are online sites like Wildwinds, sold online auctions and great reference books to buy for serious searching.
