My initial thought is no. Weight and measurements? Lets see what others say.

Shouldn't the "25" be riveted on?

I also noticed this piece this evening. Very dubious piece and while the normal variant of these pieces (with rivetted numbered box) is already quite fishy to me, this variant features the splitpinned numbered box on top of that. One of the unique features of the bronze GB's without rivets.

Altough the details and wear pattern look 100% I will personally always
stay off this type of GB's untill I have handled them in hand. The accorn's details of these pieces together with the hinge and pin without typical GB marks make me very sceptical about these.

I would not want this badge.I feel it is a high end copy.

There does exist originals with the split pin holding the numberbox on, however this is not one of them. I don't like the details, hinge, pin or rivets. In short, it is a fake.
best wishes,

Weight and measurements would tell for sure.
