Poland Exile Cross

[antiques and hobby]

Hi,
please take a look at this exile cross which I belive to be genuine - what confuse me is this bar which says "Bolonia" - is it fake bar or maybe mistake?

Hello and welcome to the forum,

I’ve moved this thread over to the correct forum.

“Bolonia” is the Polish spelling for the Italian city of Bologna.

Yes, this cross appears genuine, although strangely it looks like it has been cleaned. These should have an oxidized “antiqued” finish.

Regards,
