Another blurry picture (Sigh.... )
How does it compare to this one?

Question,

Do all original screwbacks have to have that little nipple on the reverse?

Meaning if it is not present the piece is not original Pre -1945

Joe,

Most of them have the little retaining hook, but some don't, so the presence of the hook is not a requirement for a piece to be of wartime manufacture.

[George Stimson]

For example

Here's a totally good one with no hook.

The back.

The back, taken apart.

The first cross I posted is a Floch fake.
