You bet! Interesting to look back to discussions in 2012 (Oct.) when 'Aurelius' (FROM Croatia) joined us and noted that Croatian cyrillic was termed 'bosancica' and comparable lettering shown on a sword was to GRGUR MAJSTER (=Gregory artisan) . This type 'Croatian cyrillic' was used up to end of the 18th c. and shown in Oakeshott ("European Weapons and Armor" p.189, fig.87).
