Thank you very much for your comment and your help.
I suspected that the medal was not silver, especially because of the last image, in which we can see flashes of yellow.
It is a pity, for me that the seller, to try to earn more money, has separated the original document and medal, because it means separating part of the life of a soldier and a person. It seems an act of evil.
