Hello and welcome to the forum. I moved your post here to ID required until your coins are all identified.

Your first one is not a coin. It seems to be a a souvenir medal from a cruise ship.

#2 you have shown the same pic of both sides. Can we see the other side, please?

#3: Appears to be a coin from the Kushan Empire, King Wima Kadphises circa 100 AD, Shiva-and-Bull reverse type. See this example on zeno.ru.

#4 and #5 are charms or "temple tokens", not coins. Number 5, the one with the "three wise monkeys", is relatively modern and probably intended for sale to tourists, since that particular symbol is Shinto-Japanese not Hindu-Indian in origin; it was not known in India until it was adopted by Mahatma Gandhi.

Okay, if the date is 1022 it works out to be in the 1630's, the Islamic calendar has some algorithms that make that date somewhat vague but 1630's is probably pretty close.
Value is very little, unfortunately. Arabic/Islamic coins are a very specialized field and most of what you have aren't actual coins anyway. The quality of your photos precludes any type of real guess to value.

I don't think that rupee is real - it doesn't look right, it looks brass rather than silver - though with the blurry photo's it's hard to tell. The Kushan coin looks a bit suspect too.

Value? Well - at a rough guess the temple tokens are going to be $5 or so (you can pick them up for less on e-bay if you arn't in a hurry) and the rest of "coins" about the same amount.

The legend reads "Nur ud din Jahangir shah Akbar shah" usually seen on Jahangir the Mughal's coins. But the texture of the coin seems suspicious.Jahangir's rule came to an end by 1627 AD.
