I'd like to check if these are authentic. I'm a novice, and I'm waiting on better photos. These are in a lot with a national banner from a southern area that does seem authentic, and the price is not unrealistic if everything was real.

The difference in finish on the first class with the folding pin looks to me like many other examples. I couldn't find an example with a large round back.
The Panzer shoulder boards have a backing strap that doesn't exactly match others I've seen, but I've also seen several styles.

Does anything stand out as particularly good or a bad sign? And what value would you place on the collection? (without banner)

don't see anything really glaringly wrong with anything.... ------ Banner as in 'Flag'?? You got photos?---------

* Thats a WW1 BWB...

And you might have something really nice with that WSC 1st class with screwback! You'll need more photos of that..

Detailed close up pictures are needed. Any maker marks in particular. Sometimes the medal suspension rings are marked.
