Ralph, a great badge on more than one level.

@ OP, compare yours to Ralph's badge. That's what it should look like design wise. I believe the silver finish is same between Ralph's and my variant. Yours seems to be a white wash. If possible, post a good photo of the obverse with the eagle's head clearly visible.

As Albert has stated, a clear, straight on front view of the eagle's head will show the error on the original one posted. Compare the eagle's head on Albert's and mine, to yours.

I agree, the initial one that was posted is a copy.
