I don't get all the warm and fuzzy feelings I should about this piece. Thoughts?
Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. klasse, 77 or 22 MM Thoughts?

imo,a bad casting or a very dirty mould not original.
Looks 100 original on my phone. I will take a good look when I'm home. I Will tell you maker as well.
Neither 22 or 77 are proper marks, I have very low hope now
This looks bad to me. I had a quick look at it last night.
Note the finish to the back especially. This looks like an artificial attempt to replicate how zinc can bubble with age. I have seen this trick before on other medals.

I wouldn't give this a second look I'm afraid
