The bottom left looks like a Vespasian and the bottom right looks like a Gallienus with a panther reverse. I do not have the time to get the attribution at the moment, so I will let others do that for you. We really enjoy attributing these coins. Keep them coming if you have more.

All of them are Roman except #2 and #3 in the top row. #2 looks Islamic and #3 might either be Islamic or Indian from the looks of it.

I agree with ValiantKnight that #2 and #3 look Islamic, I dont know much about these coins so someone else can prob help you further.

#1 is Helena, mother of Constantine the Great.
FL IVL HE-LENAE AVG
PA-X PV-BLICA
TRS dot

It was made in Trier (Germany) between 337 and 340AD - RIC VIII Trier 55

#5 is as JW says a Gallienus 'Zoo' coin showing a panther on the reverse.
GALLIENVS AVG
LIBERO P CONS AVG
B possibly 'A'?

This coin was made around 264-268AD. It could be from either Roma (RIC V-1, Rome 230) or Siscia (RIC V-1, Siscia 574). I think the only way to tell is to compare bust styles but I'm not familiar with them enough to do this.
