Thanks in advance for the help. Ive posted this a long time ago and no one could give a definitive answer. There are quite a few weird things about it but the general opinion was that the badge was good but the hardware on the back was replaced. Posting it again with the hopes that someone who knows these well would weigh in (my original post about it was 7-8 months ago maybe). It has all of the correct features on the front that originals should have, no gap between the wings / correct detailing on the windows etc. Im itching to know, Thanks!

Hello,
It seems good in a lot of respects, although the catch and main pin do not look proper for this maker. As best as I can tell, the ball hinge seems to be okay, but better pictures are needed to be certain. Can you post some clear and closeup pictures of the catch, ball hinge, and pin? Also, a measurement of the badge's diameter and even its weight could be helpful in making an accurate determination.
I think it could be an original badge, but with a replaced pin and catch.
Best regards,
TomMihi libertas necessest!

I agree with the others -- replaced catch and main pin.
