Well not necessarly. Here are just 2 examples (I know are real) 1929 cubs and 1941 dodgers. The style of pin back was know as a bayonette style pin. Very common on the 2 1/2 to 4 inch pins. Note on the 1941 just about the same as the Robinson. BUT in this case that Robinson pin was a pin probably made in the late 80s or 90s. The front tells more of the story than the back. And yes I would also say it was aged also. Cool piece but not vintage and not worth $80. A 5-8 dollar piece at best.
