Hello all,
Saw this for sale and I wanted to double check if my feeling was right .
i think it is a reproduction and not original war issue.

Hello Daniel,
JMHO, you need to ask the seller for better straight on photos of front and back.

Searching for anything relating to, Anton Boos, 934 Stamm. Kp. Pz. Erz. Abt. 7, 3 Kompanie, Panzer-Regiment 2, 16th Panzer-Division (My father)
Terrible photos but even so it doesn't look good from here. The case looks better to my eyes in fact.
I agree, it looks poor quality from those pics

These are two different pieces.
The cased Spange stands a chance as an original. Closer photos posted the right way up would confirm.
The second piece is a fake.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Good eye Adrian ! You are correct!

Thanks for the help gentleman and good spot Adrian. As I said I think it's not the real deal and the seller is trying to deceive collectors. I asked for more photos and this is what I've received, the same two photos as before but in better quality as well as the back of the clasp so I think the cased one is an original that he's taken the photo from someone's collection.
