No
It's a Ritterkreuz mit Eichenlaub und Schwertern and everything is reproduction.
It's a poorly made one piece cross with a repro ribbon.
The oakleaves and swords are nothing like originals and the case is also fake.
Original sets of these go for many, many tens of thousands of whatever currency is yours.
I have no idea about the SS Ausweis but if it associated with the RK, I wouldn't be holding out any hope for it.
If you have any more Eisernes Kreuz related pieces you should post them in the Eisernes Kreuz forum as well.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
The pictures are not good enough to judge an original but in this case they are enough to condemn this one as a total stinker!
Is it being offered by a dealer? If so I would not bother with him any further.
