MY HUMBLE OPINION ON THE SILVER FRONTSPANGE
Frank.
Just by looking at the reverse scans, I would say it is not original. The "C" catch has a heavier round wire used, the "C" in Schwering isn't smaller that the other letters, and the pin hasn't "bit" or cut into the zinc on the "N" in Schwerin. If the pin is non-magnetic, that will clinch it for a reproduction.
