Yes it is for long service in the economy department of Rheinland Pfalz, I have one a bit like it from Bavaria, im pretty sure its original, my best guess on value…50Euro…<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o></o>

Thanks Klaus.....seller wants NZ$300 (150 Euros), so this seems very expensive. Would this have been made 1933-45 or earlier?

Definitely earlier, the Third Reich issue ones have two Swastikas on the reverse, one above & one below the wording.
