After the initial bestowal of an SS-Service Award which was accompanied by the better known, Hitler signed Urkunde, this form of SS document was intended to be presented with any subsequent bestowal of the SS-Service Award. The regulations called for this type to be drawn up and presented by Dr. Meißner, so I must question why it has the 'Führer und Reichskanzler' seal, as opposed to the 'Staatsminister und Chef der Präsidialkanzlei' seal. The embossed seal shown here is also very similar to those on the fake award documents offered by Nicholas Morigi, in that there is a significant feature missing which is present on original examples. The 'Meißner' signature also appears to be the same facsimile which is printed on the aforementioned fakes.
BTW. Is this the doc with '188' written in pencil at the top which has been doing the rounds recently?

It certainly seems to be - you can just see the 188 directly above the 'und' on the first image of Post #2.
