Did you find a chest of gold on the ocean floor that allowed you to pick up such items?

Went on a divetrip to Asia ... Came home with:

I think he found the crosses on the bottom of the ocean .

[streptile]

where in asia did you get those????

I think he meant to say, they were waiting for him when he returned home.

[Steve Campbell]

I think he meant to say, they were waiting for him when he returned home.

No, he specifically says "came home with these" not "came home to these". He said it was the best thing he ever did collectionwise, so the trip must have had something to do with him aquiring these items. Would not think Asia would be a spot to pick up these hard to find items. A dive trip to Germany maybe......

[streptile]

Well, I happen to know he come home "to" them, since some of them came from me . I think a grammatical error that led to some confusion... or perhaps deliberate misdirection in order to stimulate conversation about Asian markets...

[Steve Campbell]

Well you had inside information we did not, all we had to go on was the grammar in the sentence, which would imply the medals were aquired in Asia. He must have made some major coin on the trip to be able to aquire such nice items all at once. Maybe that was the wise choice.

[Roglebk]

Sorry guys if i mislead you! A grammatic error of course. Crosses were found on different places in the US and Europe. Now just need to find some time to get pics of them all

Forgot to list the 1914 EKI Prinzen too

First up is the 1870 EKII Prinzen. Will make a separate thread of it.
