Can't remember where this one came from but have had it a while as I really have not bought any medals for such a while.

Very nice cased KVK.

Never issued or worn, by the look of it, but the zinc has almost totally eaten every bit of the silvering on it to nothing! Interesting!

Nice zinc set. As stated the finish has been absorbed over time by the base metal but you can tell the hardware on the back is made of a different material and retains the finish.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Highly possible this may have happened if the medal was at anytime kept somewhere damp perhaps making the zinc go off. No idea where it was before I had it.
