Very nice, Nick. You must have found where the Iron Crosses grow . . .

Had no idea the Iron cross was issued with a screwback. How common was this if you don't mind me asking Nick?

You dont see many around Mac. This is my second SB, the other is a bit saltier. They are not as in good a condition as their PKZ cousin I have

Nice piece with character Nick, does that white stuff come off?

Nice mate nice

This interests me as the soviet order of the red star (of which I own two) were screwback issued. I was wondering why the Iron cross was issued in screwback form, as I've never seen it before. Was it unique to a particular manufacturer?

The Screwbacks were issued as a private purchase by a number of manufacturers
