In the first photo:

The top right is Diocletian, Alexandria, RIC VI, 32a http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.6.alex.32a

The bottom right is Antoninus Pius, I think RIC III, 1019 http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.3.ant.1019

In the second group, top right might be a Maratha do-dundi from India. In general, diameters and weights would help with ID.

The one on the lower left of the top photo looks like a large Ptolemaic bronze with two eagles standing left on the reverse.

Maybe something like this:

I'm fairly certain the Diocletian coin is a cast copy; it looks too "porous" in those photos. The powdery patina isn't helping.

The coin at top left is a mediaeval Islamic; Seljuk Turkish, or something similar I believe.

Of the second four,
1. Golkonda?
2. Maratha (as per Seeker55 reply above)
3. Sikh Empire
4. Possibly a Paisa from Hyderabad

In future, when posting several lots of coins for ID, it help a lot if you break it into separate threads, preferably 1 per coin.
