The barrel on the tank doesn't look part of the tank almost? It also lacks detail in the grass and front hull of the tank... My gut says no but your choice, maybe it is down to ageing or quality of the manufacturer?

This is an early Hero fake EWE Panzerkampf Abzeichen. The lack of hand filed finishing in the areas indicated condemn this as a copy.

Here's a good 'un for comparison. Note the differences in finishing.

There is a thread here which highlights some things to look for on EWE badges.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Re: Panzerkampfabzeichen original or repro?
I have nothing more to add here. I agree with all that has already been posted.
