Of three kits from FTF, two were carved and one wasn't. Centerfire I think has some that they say are carved. |

After about half an hour of trying very hard to figure out what it says, the best candidate is:
TELEBA*S TRIO * - I just can't make out that letter, and since this word doesn't mean anything to me I can't even guess it. Looks like a K, maybe letter Dj in Cyrillic but I just can't be certain. Sorry. Trio is ... well trio in just about any language :) I would dare to guess that first word is name of a local village in Bosnia or maybe an area. Definitely Serbian since Cyrillic's been used. Sorry I couldn't figure it out completely, but at least you have a rough idea what it says ;) |

Actually, if the unknown letter is an R and last letter that looks like a C is in fact an E,
that would make it: Telebare That sound like a place. Again could be a village, a hamlet, an area... who knows, but it sounds like a word that would be used around in those parts of the world. Cheers |

All Serbian symbols, or shall I say majority, comes with the crown.
Until WW2, Serbia was Kingdom and you'll be hard pressed to find any non-communist (1945-1990) symbols that don't have royal markings. Significance; well, lot of Serbs (contrary to popular views in the West) were not happy with Yugoslavia. Especially communist Yugoslavia. To publicly talk about your Christian heritage and go to Church was in some cases dangerous. Once Yugoslavia died, old traditional Serbian symbols came back to life. Some with more success than others ;) All the best mate |
