IMO a fake.loss of detail.
Hi Dan,
It appears to be a 'Type 1' 4 year medal, often attributed to Deschler. Whether or not it's a good one I wouldn't like to say for sure on the evidence of these photo's, they're not good enough. The background 'stippling' is not apparent in these unfocussed and slightly distorted shots, and better close ups of that and the suspension ring from various angles would help to clarify matters. Although it stands a fair chance, I would not buy it on the strength of the photo's here.
Regards, Ned.

I agree with Ned,thats what I ment about the loss of detail.
Thank you for your opinions i have asked the seller for better photos so fingers crossed it is authentic.
I hope you get better photos, £375 is expensive if it turns out to be a fake.........
