I agree Leroy, but I also have to admit that with all the aging cleaned away, this is the first time I've ever seen the details on a 3/4 so clearly. I've not thought much of these until now. I've not liked the shape of the numbers as I've never seen them as clearly as I can on this. This is a beautiful cross. Mind you, now that I have had a clearer look it would be nice to be able to put all the great patina/ age back on it. Anyway, someone will be very happy.
This one reminds me of the piece on Hermann Historica table last weekend @ SOS. Very clean, no loop or ribbon. BTW, the wolfknives piece would be my pick.

Brian thanks for that. Great reading. I agree, they are underrated. The one that begins the thread reveals their original beauty even though the naturally aged look is better
