I have just bought this non-silver lifesaving medal on eBay.
If I'm not mistaken, it's an S&L one?

Hi Jeroen...so you were the one!!!!
I am very pleased to say, you are mistaken!!!
This is not an S&L, but the much nicer and rarer type, usually called "unknown maker" but I think it is most likely by Deschler!!
I know the S&L, and I know the Deumer, if Assmann made one, it would almost certainly be based on the S&L design, like their other 57ers, Souval had their own postwar design.....so by a process of elimination we are left with Deschler!!
It is an early piece of good quality, better than S&L, but not quite as nice as Deumers!!!
I have only ever seen one other (which I own) and that's all....very rare!!!!!!!!
Congrats
