8 and 9 are Provincials of Antoninus Pius but the others would be more likely found under Greek coins. 13 is heavily tooled but the others seem like nice enough coins.

Very nice group! I recognize a few of these, but don't have the info handy.
A few "maybes" #6 Mysia, Pergamon; #12 Sardis, Lydia. #11, possibly Carthage.
#10 is a coin of Ptolemaic Egypt; I'm unsure the specific ruler.
As for coin 7, it is a Syracuse Litra under Agathokles. Here is mine:

Greek-/-Roman-Colonial-Lot---Part-Two

Sicily, Syracuse. Agathokles. 317-289 BC. AE24 Litra. Period 4, circa 295 BC. SWTEIRA, head of Artemis right, in triple-pendant earring & necklace, quiver over shoulder. Reverse, Winged thunderbolt, AGAQOKLEOS above, BASILEOS below 9.58 gr

Thanks for your comments! DVC collector, I'm having a quick search now and seems like your maybes are about on the mark, hopefully in a few days i'll have most of these pinned down.

Dougsmit, I've got the second Antoninus Pius piece ID, 138-161, Syria, Zeugma
Obv: draped and laureate bust right.
Rev: tetrastyle temple with peribolos.

I think #12 is Kyzikos, Mysia. KYZI in wreath on the rev.

I didn't find any that had that same monogram in the center, looks like Delta I maybe.

I didn't find that same portrait either, it is perhaps Kore Sateira. I think it is particularly lovely with what looks to be a scarf like head band and the delicate features.

There is one with a different monogram here:

Good catch! Ir looks a lot like the coins on Wildwinds, but the monogram may be different.

Greek-/-Roman-Colonial-Lot---Part-Two

Kyzikos, Mysia AE15. 2nd century BC. Head of Kore Soteira right wearing wreath of grain / KY-ZI, legend & monograms within an oak wreath
