Default RCAF WAG Half Wing - Opinions please!

Dear forum,

I’ve never had any RCAF insignia before and have just acquired this WAG half wing.

The overall look is nice but it doesn’t feel right to me. How’ve I’ve never handled any RCAF badges so I was hoping for a few expert opinions!

Many thanks,

The backing looks okay from what I have seen with other examples. The colour looks a bit off, but it might be because of the scan?

I am always suspicious of wings with that black backing.
