Numismat Pillar of the Community United States 1666 Posts	Posted 09/29/2014 07:16 am The symbol is the Columns of Gediminas, an early Lithuanian coat of arms. Not sure about the flowers. Report this Post to the Staff
thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 09/29/2014 09:31 am The flower looks like a wild fritillary, or margute in Lithuanian. I'm familiar with the NW US species which grows at the same latitude and has a similar appearance. There's a picture of them if you scroll down this page. http://svajoniupieva.blogspot.com/2...archive.html "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."
