Looks like a cast lead copy of a numbered Panzerkampfabzeichen IMHO
this badge was given to me by a war a german war veteran he told he was in service in the end of the war
Moved to the correct forum.
This is probably the worst fake of this badge I have ever seen. It really doesn't come close to any original piece. Study an original and see the differences.
Also you need to crop your photos down to remove as much of the unnecessary background as possible.

Here is a genuine example from JFS. Note how this one is made in two pieces and then riveted together as all originals were. You piece looks like a one piece cast.
I have no idea where I saved these photos from so if the owner sees them and wants them removed please contact me.
