Dear Fred,

I have seen such an eagle, but not marked in this way. The pin hinge and lower prong assembly are very good quality.

I have also seen eagles in this style for the Heer summer tunic, again without markings. I think these were most likely early period.

I find the marking to be a little unusual and not well done in comparison to the overall quality of the badge itself.

The eagles I seen had well-defined details and edges.
