Looks like a decent Silver CCC but the zinc has eaten the silver finish away almost entirely.

Hi Frank,
The fluted pin is a good sign of a late war FLL Nahkampfspange. The signs of die wear on the obverse are what you'd expect to see, all looks o.k. for me, I like it.

I go with all .its good.
A good one for me too. Seen some action in it's time I bet. Nice find. Stewy
It looks good although I don't know how 'rare' this variation is.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Unusual to see a round wire catch rather than a flat wire type. Makes me think this was a transitional variant. Early late war, if there is such a thing. Stewy
Original Linden clasp in silver.
