I think that could be good example of a 65 maker... although the reverse detail is not as sharp as I am used to seeing... I will look at my badge more closely when I get home tonight.

Here is mine for example(bottom).

Hi Tom,

Sorry...I would say it is fake.It lacks detail and the line on top of badge are give aways. also 65

does not look right.You might also find rust on the hinge plate where pin goes.

What do you think Ronny....Here are a couple of my 65s

[don]

One marked in the center is early type

Now I could be wrong...More opinions please

[Paul R]

I have just looked over mine. Please see the below scans...

I feel that the badge listed above is most likely a reproduction.

I tend to agree, I don?t like the line over the hinge.

Tom do you have any measurements of the badge?

Cheers,

Ronny
