Kev in Deva Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Hallo Benas,For the moment I would have to think that this is some kind of unofficial cross, possibly, what falls into the catagory of "Patriotika", the Austrians as well as the Prussians had many unofficial awards that were sold to the public and soldiers to raise monies for the war effort or charities connected with helping the relief of wounded soldiers and their families.It also looks like there is no maker mark and just carrying the date 1014 might indicate a very early piece of "Patriotika"I am sure if any of the members do know exactly what its for they will soon tell us.Kevin in Deva.
