I don’t know anything about it, just looking for opinions about originality. Thanks!

I have one opinion that the maker mark for Juncker is wrong. 
Here are three reportedly original marks followed by the one on this badge. Note how the “C.E.” is spaced out and not crowded.

I think a majority of the fakes found will use this famous Maker's hallmark. Have seen this maker on numerous fake badges over the years. Dave

One other thing that I notice is that the swastika is not square.  The left hand (as viewed) arm of the swastika is shorter than the others.

As this one appears to have been produced to deceive new collectors, I would place it in the category of “museum quality reproductions”. The ones I typically see are not as nicely detailed or marked. Thanks for the comments!
