Hi all,
Found this for sale.
Looks good to me??
maker: ADOLF SCHOLZE
The remains of the diagonal pin is stil thear.
Pin has been replaced.
But I don't like the AS maker look, looks not normal?
Is it a good original medal?

An awful fake.

I believe this is a cast copy made from an original missing the hardware. The pitting on the reverse along with the appearance of the original hardware lead me to believe this. Also, as you say, the maker's mark is not clear enough to be an original.

horrible fake.
Not much I can add to what already has been mentioned.
A definite postwar fake and nothing like an original.
For comparison,here is an original i used to have in my collection.All original AS awards of this type featured a ball hinge and a round wire horizontal pin and a top hook.
Cheers,Martin.
Is that hardware on the OP crooked?
