What I see different is that the dates and W are thinner compaird to other 1870's I've seen, is this normal or a bad sign?

I don't have a good fealing about this one. It's kind of hard to
tell from the pictures but I would guess that the lower ring on
the crowns is slightly off center. Not a good sign. The oldly shaped
numbers and the uneven 1813 date remind me of this one---

This fake is easily recognised by the lop-sided crown and distinctive thin date.

The link Greg provided is indeed another one the same - and this is the thread where you asked about exactly the same type of fake cross a while ago.... 1870 Iron Cross Opinion

Can I suggest you copy the picture to your fakes file for reference....
