Yes, this is my Polizei award certificate and medal. And, yes you are correct that most of these Frontkampfer medals were awarded to butchers and bakers and candlestick makers instead of policemen.
You may also be interested in the Railway Police rifle markings that I just posted on another thread.

Nice markings!!!!
I'm sure I already know the answer but I'll ask anyway, I'm sure you have a Polizei Berg Fuhrer's Badge, Polizei Schi-Fuhrer's Badge and a Bergwacht Hilfi-Polizei Badge in your collection? I lived in southern germany for a few years and was able to gather a nice collection of Gebirgsjaeger things but a HeeresBergFuhrer's Badge was impossible and when there was one available, it was close to $1500-$2000, as much as a KC or a GC in Gold at that time.
