Clearer images would make it easier. What makes you think the first coin might be Diocletian? I don't think it is, but I need a clearer image to be sure.
The third coin looks like Licinius I with a IOVI CONSERVATORI reverse, but once again a clearer image will help with the attribution.
The seventh coin looks like Honorius with a VIRTVS-EXERCITI reverse.
These are the only ones I can help with until you make clearer images. I hope this helps you out a bit.

If you're having problems with your camera and light levels. Try using a scanner, if you have one. That's what I done.

I can't really tell from the blurry photo. But it is a campgate/watchtower for sure. The coin may need a good soak in distilled water or olive oil.

Its the same.I know the pics are bad but when I look it in hand I see that is the same coin.:) And yes I think to soak it in distilled water because I already try with olive oil. In the lot I found 4 silvered coins.I clean 30 coins and 23 of them have great details.I soak now 40 coins in olive oil and some in hydrogen peroxide.

2nd - LICINIUS I again?
Yes - Reverse is 'SOLI INVICTO COMITI', 'R' over 'X' in left field and 'F' in right. Its from Rome mint and mintmark is probably 'RS', 314-315AD. RIC VII Rome 29 or 30.
