larsb001 Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndresT Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) 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! Edited July 22, 2020 by AndresT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larsb001 Posted July 24, 2020 Author Share Posted July 24, 2020 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!
