Byzantine Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 It's a green Cross in a circle, in a silver Cross, with swords crosed behind it. There's kind of a diamond-shaped field, which is multiple shades of yellow. What is it? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscerningCatholic Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Need picture. Sounds like some kind of Celtic symbol, from the way you described it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noel's angel Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 It looks like the emblem for the Order of St Lazarus to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximilianus Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) The Order of St. Lazarus uses a green maltese cross. The crosses on the flag and arms are green as well, thus I don't think it's has anything do do with the Order of St. Lazarus unless its some kind of affiliation deal, which I doubt.

Papist Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Resembles many medals. I believe the photo is upside down. One example is the French Croix de guerre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximilianus Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 It can be some generic symbol used as decoration with no meaning. It would be helpful to know where and on what Byz saw this on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on a shirt some relatives sent me; they said something like that I might be familiar with it. I think it might be associated with either Baron von Steuben or the Franciscans, as I think I saw it on an FUS sports team's shirt. It's definitely not St. Lazarus.

Maximilianus Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Well, seems like you already know the answer. Image is from the FUS Baron's Fan shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
