      The obverse looks textbook, but there are some really strange patterns to the texture on the reverse...possible respray.

      Here is one of mine for comparison...

        Good original one, IMO no refinish or respray, simply a bad die stuck hit.
        Finish on these medals were made in at least 2-3 different ways (quite common during the TR medal-badges production).
        Differences are in the base metal, not in the surface.

        My books:

        - THE WEHRPAß & SOLDBUCH OF THE WH
        - THE SS TK RING
        - THE ITALIAN-GERMAN MEDAL
        - THE ANTI PARTISAN BADGE
        - THE AWARDS OF THE LW

        and more!

          Could well be Antonio...that was my first thought as well, but then I wondered how the lettering would have survived a bad strike so perfectly. Could it be possible that debris in the die would cause such an anomaly?

            I agree with Antonio, this medal is perfectly fine

              IMO an original medal.
