Hello. She's a no go IMO. A heavy cast line can be seen around the interior of the badge, the irregular edge thickness on the reverse, and the pitting/inclusions seen above the lower catch are all indicative of a cast piece. There's alot of forced aging to it as well, which fakers often do in an attempttry to pass it off as a ground dug piece in order to fool people, looking past the cast flaws. Best regards.

Personally I wouldn't want this one. Brian has made most of the same observations as i, and I also noticed a few other spots that lead me to the same conclusion as Brian, that this is a cast fake.
Ok thanks for your effort guys!
