SS 4 Year Medal - Original???

[fredswiss]

I posted pictures of this medal last but the photos were too poor (fuzzy) for a definitive decision (and I made matters worse by posting them in the wrong section). Anyway, I hope these photos are good enough to render a firm decision on it's originality. Thanks in advance for your help.

Here's an additional view of the front:

It does have the very fine pebbling in the background. Here's a view of the back.
Thanks again for your help:

The pics still ain't great, but (in these photos) It looks like an original Type II that has been re-sprayed.

Thanks for the one reply. I did have it in hand a couple of weeks ago when I asked the seller to send me photos (which he now has done 3 times) and, I agree they aren't the best. I also agree that the last photos of the front seem to show a "shine"' that does imply that it may have been resprayed but, from the in hand inspection, I am quite certain it was not resprayed.
Thanks again for your input.

It looks a good one to me too, and the finish too looks period.
Anyway better pictures would be of help.

Thanks Antonio. I appreciate your feedback.
