Hi Megan,

I noticed the difference in the sword grips on your cross in post #2 and the grips on mine, shown below. I am admittedly uneducated with this order and hope that you can help me with this - I hope that the answer is more definitive than the endless question regarding the types of sword hilts on the Saxon Ernestine order.

Also, could you show us a picture of the reverse of your star in post #2?

Many thanks,

Wild Card
