121155... is there something specific that is bugging you about this badge?
It would be a lot of money to part with if you are not sure. So you are most correct to get other opinions.
There are different known die strikes for genuine examples, ones with the indistinct back, which i believe Brooker identifies as being made by Birks. Others have crisp reverses. Lugs vary by manufacturer. known manufacturers listed by various sources are Breadner, Scully, Roden Bros. and Birks and I think Brooker also lists Mackenzie Clay in Winnipeg for those with the stamped brass lugs. (I'm going from memory here, so others more fmailiar with the badges may correct me, please)
Until others who specialize in 1CPB chime in (and we do have a couple here), I'll stick with my assessment for now.
