Thank you for the answer I know that the swordsmiths from Caino made weapons for many people from different country from Europe I wonder what kind of coat of arms is the quatrefoil that apears in the crown in 8 parts and the lilys with a different form up on the crown like in the photos. Also the up part of the crown has a secret place where has a strong smell that I think it was for poison.
