Wow. That one is so beautiful it brings a tear to my eye. The only thing missing is a NonCom EK2!

It looks , but the flat bottom construction (like am-militaria uses), different ribbon sizes used and wear on the red cross medal when compared to others raise some interesting points. Not saying it is anything other than genuine, but would like to see some further discussion about it.

I do not see much wear on the Red Cross ribbon... it does look a little discolored, but due to time?

This one looks a little too 'postfrisch' for my liking.

I was referring to the medal itself.
