Ex Auction Frank Sternberg X, Zurich, Nov. 1980. Lot 632. F. Sternberg wrote This specimen with the very large, finely cut cross containing a single pellet in its middle, shows clearly that in fact the cross is the main theme of the reverse depiction. The victorious angel is only an accompaniement to the victorious cross.
