I’m no good in these, any clever people out there that can ID these ones?
What? Me Worry
Not sure why those pictures display sideways. Anyhow, here they are rotated, cropped, numbered ...

2 and 3 are from Nepal, like you said. The first few in this Search ...

though maybe it would help if the diameters were known. Maybe. :)

​I’m not very good at identifying older coins but I’ll have a go at identifying this one.



But I would need additional information please such as diameter, thickness, weight etc.
Hi to whoever is reading this. Did you know that TYPEWRITER (on a QWERTY keyboard) is the longest word you can type using only the letters on one row of the keyboard.
4. Both images should be something like this orientation ...

I'll take a stab at the Romans. As far as I can tell they're both provincial, 3rd century. I can't make out anything on the reverse of the first coin while by rotating the reverse photo on the second coin I think I can see an eagle facing right, something commonly found on Egyptian provincial coins.



Size, weight and maybe some better, more detailed, photos would help with the identification.
I collect and deal in ancient Roman coin. In case you're looking for affordable ancient coins or need any help with the coins you already have send me a message.
Sorry, number 6 is 21mm in diameter and a whopping 3mm thick. Number 5 is 19mm in diameter and just over 2mm thick.

Numbers 2,3 and 4 are all 23mm in diameter and number 1 is 20mm in diameter.
What? Me Worry
The last two coins seems to be Roman Egyptian coins. You can find some info here:

A gallery of my coins and artifacts can been seen on FORVM Ancient Coins
Number 4 looks like Tibet Y21a but I don’t know where to look for the date to confirm it.
What? Me Worry
Nr. 4 is Tibet, 1 Sho 1924, Y# 21a:



To determine the date, two things are important, the cycle (red circle bottom right) and the year (red circle top left):


For your coin, the cycle is 15, the year is 58:


To determine the western date:


For your coin the western date is: 15th cycle, year 58 = 15 - 1 X 60 + 58 + 1026 = 1924AD
We always learn something everyday.

​Have to disagree. Reading the Numismatic questions and Coin identifications and valuations forums I learn many things everyday. ;)

Number 1 is a half rupee from Bhutan, but there are many varieties of it.
Take a look here, they're on page one: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/bhoutan-1.html
