Jamie, here is one link. I sent you another. I have noted different reverse set ups on these 57 versions.

From what I understand, this cross was made during the 80's, and not well made at that. Only the arm ends are welded together, between the arms the frame is gaped open. But I didn't pay very much so I'm not unhappy with it.

Jamie, thanks for showing it. It is educational to see the reverse hinge, pin and catch set ups of the 57 awards.
Now you need a mini. like in the following thread. Smile

Will keep my eyes open Jamie. Smile

Steinhauer & Luck still show the 57 version, Iron Cross 1st. class on their web page.
