<p>[QUOTE="7Calbrey, post: 3105852, member: 38412"]I just scanned the reverse of this original cross which dates back to several centuries, I believe. The legend is clearly German, a language that I can easily read and understand. I could detect the Father (Vater) for instance, as well as the Holly Spirit, the soul (Geistes), AMEN, IHM, IHN , Einheit (Unity) etc... Regardless of what century in the past that bronze cross was crafted, can you guess the name of the related German State? By that time Germany was very far from being united as one country. I shall shoot the superb obverse of the crucified Lord tomorrow after recharging the battery at day light. I will also post a new attractive jug. Thanks..[ATTACH=full]786952[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
