The top one is Roman, an extremely-debased antoninianus from one of the Anglo-Gallic emperors (Tetricus I, probably).

The second one is not ancient. It appears Islamic, though I'm not sure if it's Mamluk or one of the Indian dynasties.

As for the third piece, I can't tell what it's supposed to be. I can't even tell which way is up.

on that last coin, try rotating the images 180 degrees.

On the first, I think I see a person (maybe with a crown) kneeling at 3 o'clock.
On the second, I think I see a figure of an animal standing with head raised at 10 o'clock, and tail near the center.

The figure on the left side on the second picture of Coin 3 reminds me strongly of this phallic amulet.
