I have looked at the makers mark- To me it looks like an "R" for Alfred Rosner. Not sure about that as I have nevre seen this mark before.

I was searching for that info Greg. Can you tell me where to locate a partial list of maker marks and the firms that they represent? I found a list but all it gives is the maker marks and not the full name of the firm that produced the cross.

This is a very good list of makers.
