iron cross 1870 oak leaves 25 jubilee

[Joost]

Hi all,

Found this iron cross 25 oak leaves pin on a flea market. Is there some one who could tell me if it is an original 1895 edition or not? It looks like it is made of silver. Thnx in advance!

I believe this to be cast fakes -- sorry.
Originals are stamped from very thin sheet material.

I agree with Greg. Cast fake.

Too bad. The pin kinda putted me on the wrong track, since my metal detector showed me it was silver. Thank you both though!
