Not sure what this one is. Anyone seen one like it? My guess is Eastern Europe, maybe Prussia? Found in Ohio today. Thanks for the help.

Very cool find for sure!
 
Thanks for the info. I really appreciate you looking it up. Alabama Fred's house where I found it dates to almost that year. I guess the original owners were Russian. Maybe they brought it over with them? Cool to find it so far away from its home.

Very nice and uncommon find. I always thought that the 2-headed eagle of the Romanoff Dynasty was pretty cool-looking
