Default 67th CEF

Would anyone be able to confirm if this badge genuine or not? As far as I know, provenance impeccable. Front is brass but back is more of a shade of bronze. 2 copper loops E & W.

Looks like it might be cast. Need a clearer shot of the reverse.

The indent is too sharp for a casting, I would say. By the way, loops are also brass, not copper.
Apologies for unable to rotate the pic right way up. Seems to be by default.

Hope this pic does it

In the meantime, my messge passed yours. Thanks for your help
