I cant find anything on that RZM mark. Looks like poor casting as well and the prongs worry me. But lets see what others say.

It is very poorly finished and would never have passed go with the inspectors. Look at the casting flaws to the left of the swastika on the wreath. I bet these have been copied so much that many thought to be original are wrong as well! Some early copies are now showing age that would fool many collectors.
