Picked this up with a couple of nice Navy daggers. Not really my thing. Is it right? Thanks for any help.

Good spot Ade, I didn't notice that.

Any award which has a circular piece with a flap cut out and bent up to form the retainer is a post war piece. This was never used during the Third Reich era and is commonly found on post war products by the firm of Souval.
