obverse:

[attachmentid=40016]

reverse:

[attachmentid=40018]

clasp with "900" stamp below:

[attachmentid=40019]

absolutely GORGEOUS cross, herr bill!!

in many respects, i like these BETTER than

mint/unissued.

why?

look at the wear pattern on this one.

this has been worn with intense pride, and VERY well

taken care of along the way. this is one

of those pieces that - if it could only talk - would

tell an amazing story.

i'd be PROUD to have this one in my collection.

bill, i'm glad you are infected with the Imperial bug!
