At first glance I thought it was a heavily re-painted, possibly ground-dug original, but on second thought I think it's just a fake. The contours of the margins are incorrect and it's missing the tiny baseplate for the top hook.
I do not like it either
The finish is wrong but the thick paint may cover weak details.
Except of incorrect margins and missing upper hook plate, I think that the catch plate is too small and the catch has slithly wrong shape and its foot is too short.
Cheers,
