Hi, all. I posted a lead pilgrim's badge a few years ago that I thought was
Peter and Paul with a
cross between them. I assumed this was a
medieval Crusader piece, but now I am not so sure. I have been making new photos of some of our lead artifacts, and now I think it may be a
monogram between the figures. The lower portion of the badge is missing, so there may have been more to it, and the "
monogram" is far from clear, but any new ideas regarding the reading and who is represented, and the possible date would be appreciated.
Thanks, again, V-drome
