I found these two pieces of very old silver cross yesterday. It seems to be Russian. I don't know exactly how old it is but my best guess is 16th or 17th century. Very interesting find anyway :)

That is a beautiful find. The bottom of the cross seems to be missing. Perhaps another look around would be in order.
