i would highly recommend that you take a experienced jeweller on advice and let him clean it up if it is to be cleaned. as to not ruin the finish that may still be present under the tarnish.

Is this Grand Cross of the order of the German Eagle original?

I know there are different schools about cleaning a badge or not, but in this case I tend to agree with Jesus. There is IMO a major difference between a piece with honest dark patina (i.g. an Iron Cross) and one that is supposed to be shiny like the sun. Mind you, a recepient would never wear a distinguished Order like this in the shape shown here. Just my 2 bits.
