That's the device for the four-year SS long service ribbon; however, it is erroneously attached to an NSDAP long service ribbon. I can't say for sure if the SS device is original. Here is one in black (like the original medal) on a long service ribbon and a miniture of the 8-Year SS Long Service Medal for the lapel.





The 4-year SS device is on upside down.

Thanks for the prompt reply Bob. Is there a way to confirm if the medal is authentic or not (markings..size of medal..etc.)

The runes and wreath on yours seem to stick out higher than the one that I posted. I would suggest posting this in the General Wehrmacht Awards Forum and see what the guys in there have to say.
