After viewing Andrew's link, I have to conclude this is a facsimile most likely produced by Georg Zechmeyer. The pattern of leaves to the left and right of the bottom white circle is 1-3-3-3-3 and 3-3-3-3-1 instead of the genuine 1-3-3-3 and 3-3-3-1. That's pretty much a distinct difference, indicating a fake. Grateful for the help saving me and HipStamps from listing a bogus item. Do the forgeries have any collectability if clearly labeled as such?
