Two things that make it a FAKE is that it is made out of metal and the other thing is that lettering on the back Exclamation Exclamation Exclamation

I figured as much, but I did check out that website and one of the pictures he had of an authentic piece did have lettering on the back. He also says in his description that originals did come with and without lettering. Thanks for your help though
