I don't know of any reproductions, but it's quite likely it has been reproduced. This one matches the size of the originals, but you'd have to have it physically examined by a specialist map dealer or appraiser. I've seen originals of this listed retail in the $2500.00- $3000.00 range.

I found several places reproducing them but even they are from 75 to 250 depending on size,  Mine is framed and I can't see the back.  Thanks for the reply..
