Star of the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross

Hello all, Any idea how old this reproduction is of the Star of the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross? Does not appear to be recently made. Shows honest age. Hallmarked on the pin "MUNCHEN 9." which is usually seen with Deschler made pins and badges. Thank you for looking and any opinions, Mike.

We started seeing that style fake cross about 2005-ish.
It is one of the most common fakes on ebay. Not quite as many
now as say just a couple of years ago.

That cross can be found marked Munchen 9, M9, Deschler & Sons. I even saw one
marked RZM and had SS runes on it.

Thank you Chopperman. That's exactly what I needed to know.
