Hi all,

I was just given this, dnot in my hand yet, so slightly limits photos.
Its Cu, but gold plated medal. No country or currency.
On one side is states Battle of El Elamein, 1942
On the other: 75th Anniversary WWII 1942/2014.

It could possibly come as part of a 75th Anniversary set, but with no markings of the mint, the set Country of origin

El-Alamein-Cu,--Gold-Plated-Medal

El-Alamein-Cu,--Gold-Plated-Medal

El-Alamein-Cu,--Gold-Plated-Medal

El-Alamein-Cu,--Gold-Plated-Medal..

Any thought would be great. Internet search came up completely blank, which is unusual..

Thanks in advance,

Manufactured in Germany, I think.
I have somewhere a coin/medal with a very similar certificat.

edit:
or perhaps made in USA since both subjects can be linked to Amerika.

A bigger image of the part of the "Echheits-Zertifikat" with the heraldic-style logo would help. It certainly appears to come from a German-speaking country, but there are several of those, & mints there do take on contract work.
