Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1 Klasse

Hi Gents, I would like your opinions on this Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1 Klasse please.
It's marked L/15 on the pin for Otto Schickle.
The thing about it that makes me unsure of the originality is the top of the pin fixing on the reverse. Other L/15's I've seen have had a round piece around this part but this one is fixed directly to the badge.
Thanks for looking!

Yea i'm unsure, the 'bars' at the top and bottom of the wreath don't look right to me???
Anyone else please???

These were heavily Floched but yours looks ok IMO.

Here is an original to compare

Thanks Nick, I'm still not sure. I've compared the front and back to a 100% original L/15 cross without swords and the pin on the above one is definately longer and the spots on the front aren't arranged the same. I would assume every L/15 would be identical?
