tauzero Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 [quote name='Mr. Foxen' timestamp='1328796005' post='1532757'] Maltese cross has 8 points: This sort of cross is a cross pattée, as per the Queen's headgear and such. [/quote] Yes, that's why I said it was a sort of cross with the Iron Cross, which is blunt-ended but curvy-sided. In fact [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_patt%C3%A9e"]the Wikipedia entry[/url] shows this cross and refers to it as a variant of the Maltese Cross. Quote
