learned that this inscription Fringia has at present several variants of its interpretation:

1 It is a name derived from the Latin Frangere - split , broken

2 An abbreviation of words Fridericus Rex In Germania Imperator Augustus ,German Emperor Friedrich III or Frederick III called the Peaceful , the Holy Roman Emperor 1415 - 1493

3 An abbreviation of words;
a. Franciscus Rakoczy In Nomine Gentis Insurgit Armis ,Francis Rakoczy in the name of the nation to rise up in arms. Prince Francis Rakoczy of Transylvania 1676 - 1735
b . Franciscus Rakoczy In Nomine Gentis Impetit Austrian, Francis Rakoczy in the name of national Austrian attack. the same Francis as mentioned above under 3a.
=Francis II Rokoczi , please see Jim's post nr 30


because it occurs over a longer time span on (mainly) sables, they are perhaps all applicable.

best,
jasper
