InscriptionsNo marks. Engraved on one of the top pieces of the globe, an unidentified coat of arms: three lions' heads rampant facing left (dexter?) above alternating stripes of argent and polka dots (I couldn't find any tincture identification). The crest is a leaping fox or other anatomically strange creature. (this isobviously KW's blazoning so don't take it seriously!).
