			This one was sold today by 1300 Euro in a german auctionhouse! I think gold, suassa and silver, unsure about the stones.

			Great piece Detlef, thank you for posting this.  I agree: I see low gold, suassa, and silver.  The stones do look like cabochon rubies,  but close ups (if available) would help determine what they really are for sure.   
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
			Now the crown: on the one hand it looks like it could be old dirty low carat gold, but hard to determine for sure. If gold, then it would be low carat to have patina like this on it. By the way, what is the name of the German auction house? Last edited by Battara; 20th June 2014 at 01:31 AM.  |

			Re-reading this interesting thread, it looks like brass crowns are more rare as golden ones, as I don't see any depicted here. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Are there rentjongs with brass crowns in forumites collections to add here? Maurice  |
