I'm pretty sure this wing is a restrike:  the pin opens 180 degrees and there are no index marks for the findings on the reverse.  However, it's a quality die-struck wing.  Is it safe to assume it's a more recent Meyer restrike rather than a fake?  It doesn't exactly match other Meyer restrikes I found on the forum but these seem to have been made over time and show a lot of variation.  Is there any value to a sterling Meyer restrike?

You are correct that it is a modern N.S. Meyer restrike made with the original dies. They are worth basically the sum of their material. So like $20. Worth nothing to wing collectors. We all have some in our "box of tears" before everyone caught on. here is the post that discusses Meyer restrikes:
