Not a good one I'm afraid.
On the reverse, the makers mark 'L57' - Boerger & Co. didn't make this award and in fact their LDO number was L/57. The pin is marked '1' for Deschler, again, not a maker of this award.
This is a cast of an original badge as you can see the hinge block and catch plate have been cast as an integral part of the badge, never seen on originals.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
