I don't know what I have here. I could definitely use some help with what they are and if possible the values. I can post pictures one at a time.
Thank you.

They all look genuine, but I don't think any are very valuable.
1 is Domitian, RIC II.1, 667 http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.2_1(2).dom.667
Not my area, but I think 2 is a Republic denarius with Roma, symbol Feather, RRC 163/1 http://numismatics.org/crro/id/rrc-163.1
3 is Hadrian with Roma reverse, http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.2_3(2).hdn.541-547
It's one of the draped versions, I think RIC 544 http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.2_3(2).hdn.544
4 is what it says. Antoninus Pius with Fortuna, RIC III 536 http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.3.ant.536
5 is indeed Constantine I. I think RIC VII, 232, Rome http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.7.rom.232
6 is Heraclius, 12 Nummi, Alexandria https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces61498.html
7 - the photo isn't clear enough but there's most of the information there already. It looks like Gallienus, VIRTVS AVGG, RIC V 456 http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.5.gall(1).456
8 is Antoninus Pius RIC III, 62A http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.3.ant.62A
The reverse is meant to be ANNONA but looks like INNONA.
9 - I don't know, but have no reason to disbelieve what it says on the label.
10 - the photo is not clear enough. It looks like it might be Artemis on the reverse. Perhaps a provincial coin.
11 - hard to tell. It's probably Arcadius http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.10.arc_e.136 or Honorius http://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.10.arc_e.137 from Antioch. It seems to be Arcadius.
The coin in the first photo (Domitian) would have demand because it is a Twelve Caesars denarius. Unfortunately, the photo is of such poor quality that I can't say much else about it.
Of the remaining coins I doubt many would bring much though the ROMA denarius of the Roman Republic and the Hadrian denarius would probably be fairly easy to sell. Many of the remaining pieces have serious condition issues which will hurt demand.
I appreciate all the help.
Here is a retake of coin #1
Nice genuine coins.

I did reply to your PM, hope it helped.
Bronze your insight is appreciated. I sincerely appreciate everyone's help with this.
Now I need to find a good home for them!
Now that you have posted better photos of the Domitian denarius I can tell you that it should be an easy sale. While not the highest grade it is a coin that many collectors will find very acceptable. I can't help on value as I have no real feel for the current market prices.
