For the details of the coin I think it is original, but I ask your opinion and that is kind of medal.
thanks

Hi Gibello
That is a 40 year set up !
The cross looks fine but I cant comment on the 40 year device I'm afraid.
Compare it to these, there were a few maker variants. However many collectors think the Eichenbandauflage (oakleaves) with the solid base are the only originals:

The seller requests 120EUR. is a good price?
Thank you very much everyone for the answers
I received the medal and I was able to make new pictures.
I think like you that the coin is good but the rest I have doubts
Can you take any pics of the reverse of the oakleaves?
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Adrian, are as stuck with some kind of glue
What do you think of the medal without the oak leaves?
Actually, looking at the very close up shots you posted on WAF, the stippling should be a lot finer imo

Many many thank you very much to both, I guess Stickgrenade leaves are an eagle reproduction and also
Looking online I saw this that also has a rather coarse stippling may be the camera's zoom
