I've heard that some of these have been faked. How does this one look?

I can't tell from these pictures, but one of the main signs on repros on this badge is the thickness of the diamond's edges. The fakes, when compared to an original, have an edge that is almost twice as thick as the original.

Not sure how this compares to the specs. It is not very thick.
