a front view would have been nice.
It's a fine genuine example, i'm pretty certain a bronze one and a very rare badge. If you don't already own this, i'd strongly recommend you try to secure it!

I got it! for pretty much nothing. A dealer who got it in Germany was selling it just across the border in Belgium
A nice badge and in great condition! Good find!

Looks good to me. And the small amounts of Bronze finish left from age is hard to fake. Very nice badge. Quite rare that its made by Friedrich Orth too. Also look at how Friedrich Orth has a fatter eagle head. Best regards !
