When Less Than A Quarter Is Worth More Than A Quarter?

I really don't know.

But I REALLY Like it!

Very unique, I think, and seamless on the front. Nicely crafted. Can't wait to find out what it is!

As another clue for those who are still pondering what the quarter cross thing is, here is a picture of a replica in use.

Yes Philadelphian, I think so too. For those still thinking if you look at the flag of the state of Maryland you find this Calvert Cross. It comes from the coat of arms of Cecil Calvert. During the Civil War the far southern portion of Maryland's Eastern Shore starting with Accomack County sided with the Confederates. But the Eastern Shore on the far side of the Chesapeake Bay stayed so far away from the theater of war that few remember the Maryland Confederates. Similar to Corps Badges of the 18th Corp, I think this is the much more interesting "Maryland Cross." The kepi is a recreation made for reenactors at the Centennial. It's hardware come from new, old stock of items prevented from entry by the Union blockade. Many were found in warehouses of unclaimed cargo in the Carribbean through the early 20th century. The cross though is hand made from sheet stock. The genuine Maryland Cross came from an old estate which included Civil War ID tags and unusual CW tokens disbursed in the 1990s in of all places Philadelphia. Thanks again for looking.
