Stogieman Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Pinback Johaniter's Order. Unusual in that most (but not all) of the pinback crosses are usually enameled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 The reverse will certainly help with possible national origin.Could be a St John or Malta from a number of European countries, or something regimental/"Freikorps" out of the Russian Civil War.
