    All.

    Thoght it was lost, but I found it today! I have this little Silver cup with an added Liberty Cross. The cup is 65 mm high and the cross has enamelled arms, so I assume it should indicate one of the higher classes although I cannot be sure weather it's a 1st or 2nd grade cross. The cup is made by Tavast and have the inscription "Meie täname" which google translates to "Our thanks to" and the date 10. V 34.

    Would anybody here know at which event this cup were given, to whom and if the date means something special? A google search did not do the trick for me!

    Regards, Lars

    10. V was every year celebrated as Meeting of Cavallers of Cross of Liberty. 

    1934 was 15th anniversary of Cross of Liberty. Parade: 

    Btw! Nice cup!

    Hi Andres, thanks for the video and info, this makes sense, now I hope to understand weather this was some kind of official award or more a family or comrades gift to someone.

    A few years ago another Cross of Liberty memorabilia was offered at a Swedish auction, it became quite expensive so it didn't went my way, but here's a picture!
