Hi looks like a good one going off reverse set up, style of eagle etc
. I have noticed thou that the inner right hand side of the wreath seems to lack detail, and the metal looks alittle strange but this could be down to the flash or pic? Is that the case.
As for your question quite a lot of U-Boat awards were awarded posthemously, and still produced in numbers by various factories. All the bestComment

Never seen an eagle, boat or swastika like that before, what manufacturer would that be.Regards, Rob

Hi Rob these have been around in low numbers for quite some time now, I believe the maker is unknown. Detlev had a number of these for sale in various conditions a few weeks back, to my knowledge Dion had one for sale also, there are very slight differences to the eagle that i have noticed. Maybe Dion if he has pics could post the example he has had. Like i mentioned there is a lack of detail to right hand side, and colour which looks as if it maybe the pics. Lets see what others make of it. All the bestComment
