          Hi Andy,
          I don't know all of them but the ones in post #1 and #2 are very much real.
          I believe that the first 2 are grades of the Frans Joseph cross. The next is a Friedrich Augusta cross and I think is one of the Imp. german states Equivelent of the Iron Cross 2 class. Then comes a 40 year long service award and a war merit cross. The rest I don't know.

          I am still knew at this some you will need some more opinions.
          hope this helps,
          Greg

            The third medal of the first group is the Friedrich-August Cross 2nd Class from the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg. It is, as Greg says, an EK2 equivalent. I would say the centre medal of the 3rd group is a Belgian veteran's organization medal. That's just a guess, though.

              Hi first and second cross are Austro Hungarian before 1918 periode.First one is Verdienst kreuz in silber or gold mit krone (it is very worn out so difficoult to say what grade silver or gold)with civillian ribbon and second one is Eisener verdienst kreuz with combatt ribbon.

                Andy:
                1st pic-all i.sd.ed
                2nd pic: Fireman'sLS medal for 40 years service-probably Bavairia
                Next_Prussian/imperial war merit cross-awarded 1916-1918 very common medal.
                Last pic-Rumanian Crusade Against Communism medal-awarded to Rumanians and Germans (etc.) in south Russia from 1942-1944.
                3rd Picture-no clue, but I'd warrent #3 is a Vatican gong.
                This pic (#3) should be in international.
