Those models existed in three different colours: Copper, Silver and Gold, representing the different level of achieved mileage (I guess 100.000 - 250.000 km). The original stand is metal as well. They had also a Viscount and a 707 of same style in earlier days.
This was basically the early type of Lufthansa Miles and More program. Much more attractive than the scrap you can get today on and off board

This very well could be a Verkuyl model. My dad got it in 1964. The wood base is the original base that came with the model.
