Original West Wall Medal, no ribbon. Slight wear and tarnish around the swastika, but should clean up nicely. 

 

The Deutsches Schutzwall-Ehrenzeichen was awarded to individuals who designed and built the fortifications on Germany's western borders, known as the Westwall or, in English, the Siegfried Line, between 15 June 1938 to 31 March 1939. Later, eligibility was extended to servicemen who served on the Westwall for at least ten weeks. In 1944, after the allied invasion, the medal was re-instituted and awarded to those who renovated and strengthened the fortifications on the western borders. This version of the medal was commonly known as the "Defence Wall Honor Award", to distinguish the decoration from its 1939 counterpart.
