Hank many pins have been reproed thru the years there are at least 2 musials that were. I collected pins for over 45 years and have dealt a ton with that musial pin... the silver or aluminum backs are repro.. Here are a few more that are and have been reproed.. Mantle brewer the most! Note the 3 different color uses on the mantle day pin.. You might want to ask PINZPLUS on ebay how many pins he has reproed...
