Hi Robert,
It looks like a nice example and appears to retain most of it's finish.
A four-prong/rivet Baltic cross is very uncommon - I may have seen one or two before. The 4 attachment points would have made vaulting the pinback cross (which seems to have been common/preferred) difficult. Yours looks relatively flat compared to some?
Don't worry about the attachment method. I have seen small and large dome rivets, hollow rivets and bent-prongs used on both Baltic Crosses and Schlesien Alders.
Re the Baltic Cross appearing in a Wehrpass, this would be acceptable as the Baltic Cross was one of the few Freikorps awards to be given official status post-1935.
Regards
Mike
