Sorry, but this one is a complete Fake.
Actually didn't look too bad to me,Why?
Here are four other clear signs that this is a fake medal. Note the extremely messy processing!
I agree with the above, the double X on the eagle's legs and cross hatch feather design is unlike anything found on originals, the turkey like head on the eagle is also wrong. The lettering on the reverse is thinner than can be seen on originals and as said, the lettering is messy, as is the application of the blue enamel.
I agree about the ribbon as well and as an additional observation, the loops on the outside of the ribbon should be blue, not white.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

One of those is on my shopping list. I have learned something new today.
