Real or Fake?

I only managed to trade a couple of times during my recent trip. I traded a pin away (can't remember which one) for an Archimedes pin that was released in 2013 (will post a picture when I can find where I put it).

I traded another pin (again, can't remember which one) for Basil from The Great Mouse Detective (since I have the accompanying Ratigan pin) but I then traded it away for something else and then finally traded that pin for this one

It's pin on the PD66451 DisneyPinPlace.
There is a small dip on Donald's forehead but other than that, the pin looks pretty good.
 
I don't see any scrapper/fake warnings on DPP or Pinpics, and there aren't that many showing up on Ebay (and none from China). I'm not a scrapper/fake expert, but I'd wager that the pin is real. I have quite a few pins directly from Disney with dips in the enamel as well, so it's not that unusual.

Thanks for the feedback :)
I do have a few legit pins from Disney that have dips as well so I reckon it's most likely real. The quality of the pin itself seems high quality.
