Rectangular bronze
« on: February 23, 2019, 03:32:47 am »
Hello,

Maybe someone can attribute this:



Europe, unknown fragment,
(ΓΈ 13-28 mm / 2,38 g), bronze,
Obv.: two sheats(?) crossed, tied by ribbons or straps.
Rev.: central star within geometrical pattern of dotted lines.

Thanks and regards,

 :)

My guess is Napoleonic era.

Thanks Shawn !

Napoleonic was also my impression.

Any idea for the former usage of this fragment?
