    The first is the Belgium Decoration for Labour. The rest are what appears to be sports medals.

    All but the first are for football/fussball/soccer. Where I live, old sporting medals have minimal value; it may be different in Belgium.

    #3 & #5 may be gold and silver, its worth getting them tested.

    First: Medal of Labour 2nd class
    https://www.mauquoy.com/en/product/medals-labour/medal-labour-2nd-class

    You have A LOT of those (same for 1st class), worth only a few euro. I find them on almost every flea market I visit as well.

    Rest, not very clear, but it looks like sporting medals which have an even lower value: close to nothing. Whatever they might be asking: it's too much!

    €7 for the lot is a good deal. Congrats.

    Are you in Belgium? We just had some of our Belgian friends here visiting for ten days. We go over there nearly every year.
