Outstanding teamwork!!! This is exactly what I meant!! Ibrahiim and Mark thank you for continued support and input. It is truly rewarding to see everybody working together in sharing ideas and material, and Norman and Fernando are super sleuths ( theres that word again Nando
) at finding superbly pertinent examples reflecting important comparisons with everybody else right along with them.
Glen, there you are!!! and I was quietly hoping you would come in here. There are few who have the kind of resources you have on these weapons and you've been at it a long time. Thank you so much for taking the time to add in these valuable resources!!!
We may not have an definite solution as yet to these mysterious fleur de lys stamps on these weapons, but I think we know a heck of a lot more on the use of these distinct symbols as markings than before.
Thank you everybody!!!
