Hello,

You might find something interesting in this document. It's in French but with a lot of legends listed.

Or in this one (with pictures and in English) :

In the first picture it is a cross, with a legend amoungst it. It appears to be "BASILE" and "IS___".
On the second photo it appears to show " + " then first and second lines illegible, "_BAS_" "cOs" with "_._"
