Would like to get some opinions and if they are original metals.
The Fire Bregade is marked : W.KOLWITZ BERGEDORF M9/72
The War Merit is unmarked. And maybe help put a value on them.
Thanks For The Help, Tommy

I am not familiar enough on all makes of KVK 1st class but the Feuerwehr Ehrenzeichen 1st class is a known fake.The original should measure 58-60mm. This fake will measure approximately 43mm, which is the correct size for the second class award. M9 is a code used on tinnies not awards and decorations. Most 1st class awards will also be vaulted and the fake will not be. Sorry, hope someone can comment more positively on the KVK. Regards, Duane

Again, can't help with the KVK I'm afraid, but Duane is spot on with the fire cross. This one is a well documented fake.

I do not see any red flags. It looks like the S&L that Jamie posted in the above link, (4 mark).
