Naval Investigative Service (NIS) badges

Has anyone noticed the old-style Naval Investigative Service ( from before they became known as Naval Criminal Investigative Service, or NCIS) badges which have been popping up recently on badge trading/selling websites? From the pictures they look authentic, but I am very suspicious that they are being offered for around $150 - $200 range, which seems very cheap for a real NIS badge. Also seems odd that so many have showed up in the past 12 months or so -I would think such badges would be extremely rare. Finally, I would think the government would keep pretty tight control and accountability over these badges even if they were made obsolete by the renaming of NCIS...Or maybe I just missed out on the chance to get a great badge at a really good price. Any thoughts?

That engraving looks shiny enough to have been made yesterday.... Er... maybe it's just the lighting:)
