Seeing both the 1939 KVK w/o Swords and the 1939 War Merit Medal together on the same bar raises suspicion as does seeing both the 40 and 25 Year Faithful Service Decorations. But neither of these two issues disqualify the bar in and of itself. There were actually cases where long-serving civil servants wore two faithful service decorations on their medal bar, paralleling the way in which members of the armed forces wore two Wehrmacht long-service decorations. It was certainly contrary to regulations, in the case of civil Faithful Service Decorations, but it still happened from time to time. And, since both are being worn here, the 40-Year Faithful Service should be placed before the 25. Another issue that raises suspicion is the presence of the Merit Medal to the Order of the German Eagle. This order/medal was instituted specifically so that Germany had an award that could be bestowed on foreign nationals. As such, they were seldom ever awarded to Germans. Even in 1943, the regulations specified that they were only awarded to foreigners. It is also odd that a 1937/1939-type Silver Merit Medal to the Order of the German Eagle is suspended from a ribbon for the 1943-type Bronze Merit Medal to the Order of the German Eagle. I also find it unusual that this guy (who is at least 58 years old during WW2) did absolutely nothing during the First World War, either as a combatant or war participant. None of these issues, taken individually, necessarily mean the bar is fake. But when they are taken together it casts so much doubt on the bar that there is very little chance that it could be real. And, lastly (as Ian mentions) the ribbons on this medal bar all look to be modern-made replacements. As far as I'm concerned, that eliminates any possibility that this bar is legitimate.
