From these photos is really difficult to say. The photographic contrast is too high.
I don't like the back and the tin soldering look recent. The whole eagle lacks the patina of time.
However, it would take better photos to express a correct judgment.

Thanks so much for the opinions on this piece; it’s a rare bird(!) but I just wasn’t getting the warm and fuzzies..

I would like to be of more help and so I am attaching photos of one of my imperial eagles for comparison.
