Komandir RKKA,
I think it may be a 'Finnish Winter War Bothers-in-arms badge'.

Toot,
Thanks for the question. The Knights Cross in the picture is a Steinhauer & Lück with an 800 marking on the cross. I will post these two photo's and one or two others in the 'Germany: Third Reich Awards, Decorations & Medals' section of the forum for any further review.
Regards,
Graham

Oliver860,
At first glance it looked like an Unofficial Type 1, as classified in the book 'World War 1 Victory Medals' by James P. Michels Jr. (jonnymac on this forum). But looking at it a little closer there seems to be too many differences, so in my opinion I do not think it is an original. Below is my 'Unoffical Type 1' for comparison.
Regards,
Graham
