Hello Hacht,
That badge is not original. Originals by this maker must have a ball-type hinge and a crimped-in catch. That badge is a well known fake of very good quality. It has fooled many collectors.
Best regards! Tom

I agree with Tom, a known fake. Pins on these bend like butter.

The fakes are becoming better and better.
I´m really sorry for those guys who start collecting now.
We old wolves have at least SOME badges that is original.
