hi all,I found this the week before last, was caked in green vertigris but have been soaking in distilled water and scrubbing with a tooth brush, can see a pattern emerging, looks like a hull of a boat on the bottom and perhaps a sail or even a crown ? on top or could be two apposing crowns (or similar.also what looks like a mast or a straight groove cross perhaps? and a few colours showing poss enamel blue white a bit of red and poss purple size is about 2 inches diameter.....any guesses?
