I have not seen it in reality, but no doubt. Two of the holes of the shield have no rings, the third is broken, and the fourth surely as well.
The same mark was on a mail fragment of clearly different shape, sold at the same auction house October 2009 lot 421.
The same mark again on a complete shirt, sold October 2008 lot 388 at the same auction house.
The mark without mail fragment, described as genuine, is actually for sale in the USA.

good expert eye swordfish!
the mark with and without the mail post #1 and#2 are one and the same! and still for sale in the USA.
I can not judge form the pictures if it is real or not, can you?

best,
