Most of them are buckles of WWI period. They are from different kingdoms as in this period Germany was a land of several dukedoms and kingdoms, led by the prussian king and emperor King F.Wilhelm II.
Each army of the corresponding dukedom and kingdom had his own buckle for the troops.
"GOTT MIT UNS" (God with us) ist the most known buckle and from prussia. Later this slogan was further used for the Reichswehr infantery buckle (1919-1935) and then later also for the Wehrmacht Infantry buckle.
"In Treue Fest" (always faithuful) is the bavarian buckle (Kingdom Bayern)
"Furchtlos und Trew" (fearless and faithfull" is the buckle of Kingdom Württemberg). "Trew" is an old written version of today´s "Treu".
Eagle + "Gott mit uns" is the buckle of the Reichswehr after WW I and before founding of the Wehrmacht.
Kind regards and greetings from Germany
