Well I finally figured out why my macro would'nt work so here we go.
I guess I'll do each one seperate because I don't know in what order pictures will come.

The first I have not been able to find and am not sure if it is a period item.

Thank you,
Rudy

So I should search around Viking medals. Although the 'Altschwedisch' sounds like it has a lot of German in it.

Thanks ez,
Rudy

First picture shows an ancient shield from sweden. "Altschwedisch" means "oldswedish". This tinny was one in a group of
7 and its a WHW Winterhilfswerk giveaway, issued in Germany Oktober 25 to 26, 1941.

For all who are interested in WHW tinnies, go to Berts Sammlerecke Bert's Sammlerecke

Enter -> mark and enter -> Galerie -> Winterhilfswerk -> RSTS. Yours is number 426

The medal with the eagle overcoming the dragon on the obverse and the inscription "Den siegreichen Streitern / 1900 China 1901" is the China-Denkmünze für Kämpfer (China Commerative Medal for Combatants) awarded to personnel involved in the suppression of the Boxer Rebellion.

Here is a nice (German language) link showing more examples including clasps, miniatures, ribbon bars, documents etc:
