The first 3 look to be Roman. Maybe the last 2 also, but, they don't look familiar to me.

The first coin is Byzantine; a five nummi, a 'pentanummium', marked with the letter 'E', the Greek numeral for 5.

Another coin is similar (but not exactly) this one:

Ancient Rome Constantius II Fel Temp Reparatio Follis 351AD to 355AD​

This Roman follis from Constantius II, second son of Constantine I and Fausta, and brother of Constantine II and Constans, show the gruesome scene of soldier spearing a fallen horseman. They were popular coins and many are available today for collectors. The inscription 'Fel Temp Reparatio' is short for 'Fel[icis] Temp[oris] Reparatio' and it means 'Renewal of Happy Times,' a less gruesome thought.

I believe the 'VOT" coin's legend reads: DN VALENTINIANVS PF AVG, pearl diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right / VOT XX MVLT XXX within wreath. (Valentinian II the monarch)
And the coin would look similar to this; especially in the legend:

Don in SoCal.

The last coin is Valentinian II.
