E-boat Badge - 2nd Pattern.
Another easy one to pick because they reproduced it in a good quality basemetal, whereas genuine Schwerin examples are only known in zinc.

U-boat Badge
The repro in this series is actually the easiest one to ID as they used a propellerless Hymmen-like design for the obverse
In the first two images, the repro is compared to an earlier unmarked genuine example.

I'll digress slightly by showing a much better repro, although marked for another maker; Frank & Reif, who did not produce period U-boat badges.
Obverse comparison with a genuine later tombak unmarked Schwerin example....Regards
