Can anyone tell me if this is an original award please? I have tried to identify it but no luck and I'm not sure that the dealer knows much about it.

I saw that one yesterday and I couldn't work it out either. Here are the pics,

Thanks for that. It's usually pretty easy to search around on Google or this forum and find a match, but I can't find a thing.

Should be from cast iron, magnetic. If it isn't, it's probably a fake. I think cast fakes of these are around, however the real ones aren't too rare. By the way, the ribbon doesn't match...

Here is the 1813-1814 version of the non-combattant Prussian War Medal for service in the Napoleonic Wars, showing the correct ribbon.

Having seen those pics I don't think the one on offer looks like an original.

Mhh.... I don't see anything concerning. Is it from iron?

It looks like iron and correct to me.
