Most of them look Roman (an ancient European civilisation dating from a few centuries BC up to the 5th century AD) but a couple may not be. For example the one in the second picture (middle top left) looks more Islamic or Indian (I would guess early 19th century but could be wrong.) . Quite a few seem to be Islamic in the bronze section (the first 2 pics) but in the last 2 pics I can confirm all look to be Roman. The coins in the last 2 pics are silver Denarius coins. The bronze coins are in poor condition. The roman ones are worth maybe $1.50 a piece and the islamic ones might be worth around $1 a piece. The silver denarius coins are more desirable though. They are probably worth around $10-$50 a piece.

Keep in mind these are only estimates. There could be some sort of rare variety worth a lot of money or they could be fake. I would recommend taking them to a local coin shop.

You may be aware there are about 20 variations of the Victory reverse coins in your collection. To differentiate each Victory
('victoriaoav') coin to its specific attribution will take more than a casual review. There are members here, like CRU and his dad, who are extremely knowledgeable about Roman coins. If the Roman silver coins would be presented in highly focused obverse and reverse pics (say) in twos versus the entire collection, you may get a more specific answer to your questions.
Don......
PS: I like the collection and would also like to know the backstory as to how they came into your possession.

I have a bad feeling about those Roman 'Denari looking' coins!
