Agreed fake, the floating swastika is pretty bad and reverse fuess nothing like original.

Yep, that's a fake.

I'm adding the photos so the thread won't be useless in the future.

Ha! That's the exact same number on the back as the example fake I have on my website - 3105. Have a look here: http://pages.interlog.com/~sjl/GPB/fakesnew3.html

Might even be the same badge. You can see the poorly done leaves with the sloppy lines over them. They are in the same places, so it could be the same badge, only aged a little more.




Here is the reverse from my website:



This photo has been on my website for at least 4 or 5 years.
