Hello,
Can any of you fine folks give any advice if this telecaster neck. What is it? Is it authentic? I've never seen a telecaster neck that doesn't say telecaster on it in someway.

Looks legit.
It didn't come from a specific guitar though so it can't be "identified" in the usual sense.
It is a "replacement" neck.
The obvious aspects are maple board, 21 vintage frets, small radius (7.5), Kluson tuners.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

Retroverbial / Arjay and John C previously addressed this type of replacement neck.

I thought those medallions were only on the CBS-era replacement bodies - hence the low value. If they were on the 1990s bodies as well then I stand corrected.

FMI made bodies and necks available for selected models up through 2002 when they were dropped as a cataloged item. This cartouche was used on the reverse side of the replacement necks' headstock......

Current Fender replacement necks look like these:
