I need some help from everyone here

As some of you may know, I had a bad bike accident last year. The driver was underinsured and the payment I got is inadequate to cover any possible future medical complications, to say nothing of months of pain and suffering. Therefore I started a Go Fund Me...

Have you verified authenticity of this clip? Looks off to me.

I emailed Derrick at the site's email address, but he never responded. I got it from a guy who never bought cheap knockoffs. I'd appreciate it if you could point out what's wrong with it. Thanks for pointing, I'll do a little research


It looks like old work so far





The screws are treated with acid and aged with sandpaper or another tool

The shape of the shield looks off, especially the rounded tip on the bottom. They changed the shape of the shields a little over the years, I just haven’t seen one that looks quite like this (doesn’t mean they don’t exist). The finish is tough to make out, it may be really worn VGM, and the way that the dragon tail thins out as it nears the tip (talking about the thickness, not the width) isn’t something I’ve seen. Maybe someone filed the bottom side to make it more pocket friendly. I am by no means an expert and it may be perfectly legit.
