Doc Wrote:Dear Eric,
Thank you for your quick reaction. For your info, the Hungarian royal crown is 1000 (one thousand) years old and believe it or not there is not a tiny spot of rust or dirt on it...:) looks brand new!!

Well, Due to the different uses both items have, I´d say they cannot be compared... A shashka or any kind of sword was to be used everyday, in combat or field (and obviously suffering some weathering because of that), and crowns didn´t. And concerning to its costruction, I suppose the hungarian royal crown is made of precious metals and stones, and these do not rust, as far as I know. Steel and/or iron do rust with the years.
There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

Very nice! :thumbsup I'd love to have one of those. I like the ones with the bayonet attached to the scabbard. Two for the price of one, sort of. :)
