Hi Andrei,
The badge itself looks fine. The presence of a catchplate indicates to me it's probably a zincer but the finish is exceptionally nice. I'd personally be examining the finish very carefully to ensure it has not been recently refinished.
Regards
Mike

Hi,
as said the badge and the setup is textbook 
The finish looks a little bit shiny - could be caused by the photo itself (flashlight?).

I believe it is 100% correct. Ron.
