I believe boxed L/11s are made later than unboxed ones. Model 57 iron crosses made by Deumer are sometimes marked with boxed L/11, mostly unmarked. Unboxed L/11 are usually copper electroplated over the iron core, like the very early shinkels made by Deumer. The examples I know are mostly well used and weared ones. It?s well known that Deumer (like Rudolf Souval) has been making iron crosses after the TR era...and most minty examples are marked with boxed L/11... of course I don?t mind that boxed ones are always postwar!...it?s only something to think about.

And here is my 1939 schinkel iron cross. May be somebody could identify the rim. As you see, the pinback attachment is the same.

A view from the back side.

I?m interested in identifying the maker of these iron crosess, one piece, pinback or screwback versions. I believe it?s the same maker than my schinkel 1939 iron cross. I posted this photos in another forum with 0 responses, so I?m trying here (by the way, this is my first post here).
