I have received this pin now and I think it looks pretty genuine. What do you think?

I got no reply to this post, but I think I can authenticate this myself by posting this pic from another forum... same as the one to the right.

The markings on the last SA pin on the right are raised (like the "6" next to it) while they are indented on the one you ask about from what I can see.  You now have it in hand so is the pin you asked about die struck or cast?  Personally, I am more comfortable with die struck pins and ones with twisted pins than the other styles.
