Hello Corey,
I've only just noticed this thread and hope that you haven't already bought this badge. It is a Japanese made fake sold through the Bekkoame/ Schmidt and Sohn website. These have been around for some years now and run the whole gamut of rear hardware, from the basic setup shown to more elaborate clamshell screwbacks etc. A big first glance tell on these badges is the pronounced leaf veining instead of stippling, and the noticeable thinning of the wreath at the 11 o'clock position.
Here is the company's 2021 catalogue. Be patient and scroll down the page to find the latest hardware incarnations used:

These are abundant on German eBay, and emedals seems to have a constant supply of them.

Hi Corey,
There's nothing wrong with these ones, they're fine. It is one of the more common designs. I've got 8 of these myself in black and silver. Both cutout and plain.
Regards
Brett
