It's the War Merit Cross, with swords, 2nd class. It was presented to soldiers for meritorius service, not necessarily in direct combat. It ranks below the Iron Cross 2nd class. Reproductions, of which there are plenty sell for about $20.00. Originals, I am unsure. Do a web search for wehrmacht awards. There is a website by that name with information about all WWII German gallantry/combat awards. Sorry I'm at work right now and don't have the address. They have a forum on the site. You can ask them the value and if it's original.
