Obverse detail looks soft, reverse detail appears to show signs of casting and photos are bad. I wouldn't put any money down based on these images.
This one looks like the common Juncker type two 3 cutout fake but better pic's are needed. When they are as ambiguous as this you need to be concerned, why not take a simple straight on front and back shot? Because that will give the game away. As Glenn said, the detail is soft and the odd tapered flat pin is not found on originals. The base metal also looks dead wrong.
