Not a chance I'm afraid. Everything is wrong with this cross, it's a pure fantasy piece. As a rule, if you see a number stamped on the pin of a 57 DK like "2" or "20" then it's time to run away.

What Ned said. A very poor-quality, crude fake.
Here is a genuine 1957er DKiG for comparison:
Other specimens can be found here:
57er Deutsches Kreuz in Gold
My new 57er DKiG

Agreed with all the above. Andreas shows us an early St&L, here's a Deumer for comparison also.....
Both of those are lovely examples of the post war cross, thanks for showing them gent's.
