January,
That is the thread I had in mind, but I must confess that I completely forgot about the pinback part of it (must have zapped it for some reason...).
I doubt that it was made as a pinback originally. All one had to do was to thread the screw through the fabric in the first place to secure the order. IMHO, I tend to believe that an experienced British jeweller removed the screwpost and mounted a pinback. Anyway, as long as we do not have any pictures from the back of the order, all we can do is guess.
