This is a unique religious icon. Dont know much about the technique. Its almost 3d, made with various textiles and fabrics. Its almost as it under the threads of the robe, there might be material to make it more 3 dimensional. It is very ornate. Not sure of the technique used.
Any critique would be helpful. Im assuming its a rare item, being from greece from 1923. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Appears to be a silver plate of St. George(the front) and was made into a box,
welded to another box to make it the way it looks now. A handle is on each side. One person
suggested it may have been a tea box. My husbands father who was greek, always told him there was a piece of Christs cross in the box. however, the box was opened to find two byzantine coins.

This is an interesting little "coin" that I have never run across until now. It has the face of the Statue of Liberty on its face and says "Liberty" at the bottom with a reference date of 1982, even though the main dates on the coin show up as 1986, the centinnial of Sears Co. Also on the front along the edge, it says "contains authentic material". On the back, it has the number 100 with "celebrating sears new century 1886-1986. The coin is almost quarter sized. Any help on the value of this coin would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking and take care!

Description
This is an unusual coin defect that has me wondering if it could be possible-even when I'm holding it in my hand. Everything about this quarter is normal except for the fact that George Washington has quite a large bump on his head. I'd like to know if this is for real, and about how many of these quarters were made with this defect. I'd also like to know if it has any significant monetary value. The front of the quarter is the only side affected- the back shows the normal New Jersey state scene. I'll try to get some better photos if necessary. Thanks for any help and take care!

This is a little pin on badge or medal of some sort, I'm guessing. As the description above says, I'm pretty sure this is sterling silver. On the front is a train and horse scene with I guess maybe a soldier in the foreground. The only imperfection is in the pin on colth area, with some threads coming loose. The dimensions of this object are 1 1/8" tall and 1 3/8" wide. This is a charming little pin and I'd love to know the history of it.

Description
This is an extremely nice smaller sized knife. I'm not sure what the case of it is made out of. The blade says buck 826 u.s.a. on the base of it and on the other side it has the number 004343. It is a commemorative knife featuring a gold colored inlay of the statue of liberty and some type of coin insert with liberty on it as well. On the blade is written 1886-1986 banner style. On the housing, the one side has the statue and the opposite side contains the phrase "keep the torch lit" in a banner type gold color. The knife measures 2 3/4" closed and about 4 3/4" when opened. The blade is very nice, has kept sharp easily over the years and still really doesn't show any wear. Thanks for any help.

The Charm on the side that has flower objects has a letter "A" "U" "M" and a smaller "C" within a circle next to the "A" The other side of the charm has a Owl with large eyes that appear to be suns. It has a swastika symbol on the left side. It is not completely flat as you would image a charm to be. I would say it if the image could have been pressed on it may have been but the pictures are raised up. The top has a loop which makes me think its a charm of some sort. Their is one small metal connector on the loop which looks like a broken necklace link.
