Vatican-Order of Holy Sepulchre

[nickstrenk]

Dear collegues,who will be able to evaluate this order?And assing to the period.Order is from silver,in the reverse we can recognize 2  marks.

Has nobody  seen this grade of the order on sale?

Case lid illustrates arms of Pope Pius X  (2 June 1835 – 20 August 1914); reign August 1903 to death in 1914.  That should enable you to fix a time period.  This type appears on the collector market infrequently, usually in an Austrian milieu.  Van Der Dussen may provide  expanded information.   Sometimes described as a 'Knight Cross'.  What are the hallmarks?  Austrian?

What exactly do you want to know?

Many thanks for attribution to the topic.One man offers it to me.Does it cost 150euro?Yes,the hallmarks are Austrian ones.

I bought one of these without case in about the same condition for nearly 70 euro equivalent in 2004 because it was part of a group.  Can’t recall any recent sales although an auction, perhaps Gallerie Numismatique?, may have offered one in the past several years…do not remember opening bid or sales price.

Maybe a Vatican State collector can offer a better idea…

Thank you very much for nice advice.I will try to offer him 100euro.
