Hi Phil,
Great pin but it has been reproduced. The pin is 3 inches across and the real ones have a kinda cheap cardboard backing, which does seem to come apart over time. I have seen the cardboard in grey color (like mine) and also a bluish color. I would try and stick to the grey color. If it has a tin back meaning there is a pin thru a piece of tin its probably a repro. I have has this companion piece for a long time kinda nice to see it. Good luck in your search... Prices hard to say anywhere from 175-400...
