The named cross is a common fake. The screw-back appears to be a converted 2nd class which sometimes was done in the field as a stop-gap measure until a proper 1st class was awarded.

That's what I thought about the name cross did not pay much for it but makes a good conversation piece

Hello rhodesia,
I agree with bolewts58 on both crosses.
As far as I know, it is a myth that the Navy had its own saltwater-resistant iron crosses. They were awarded the same Iron Crosses as all other soldiers. Usually they were worn on their dress uniform and not on board the ships.
I like the second cross. In my opinion, field productions are contemporary witness pieces that show how it was in the past and a nice addition to a collection.
Best regards
Wolf
