I believe the eBay badge is fine, it may however have a replaced loop. For a genuine example expect to pay £90+. Some dealers will charge considerably more though.

There’s no fake die á la Martin Marsh catalogue as such but there are cast copies. Two typical examples attached. Several threads on the forum discuss these, one point I look for is the ‘N’ that merges into the scroll border. There are genuine badges which have this feature but in my experience it’s present on all the copies. Notwithstanding it’s a good indicator you need to look closely at it badge overall and back if it’s there.
