another pic, and what does the writing say?

 

[PBK]

The inscriptions are Latin.

DOCENDO DISCIMUS means "We learn by teaching."

EX NIHILO NIHIL FIT means "Nothing comes from nothing."

I have seen buttons bearing the same image and inscription.

Actually, the portrait appears remarkably similar to that of King George V of Great Britain, who reigned from 1910 until 1936.

PBK....Now that was nice.

Why don't you consider taking a well earned (with-out pay) vacation to kind of give your brain a break.
