This is a die-cast metal and plastic military vehicle model.
This is a very nicely detailed, fully assembled and fully finished die-cast model of the US M26 Pershing tank, as used in the Korean War, circa 1951. Markings are for a US Army Pershing of the 6th Tank Battalion, 24th Division, famous for painting tiger faces on the fronts of their tanks to frighten the enemy. Tracks represent the early-style T81 single-pin metal type, most often seen on WWII Pershings but occasionally seen on post-WWII vehicles. Interestingly, the spare track links on the turret represent the later double-pin type...not an impossible combination, as tank crews would routinely slap just about anything onto their vehicles! The model comes mounted on a custom black plastic base, with a clear plastic case to help keep it free of dust and fingerprints.
