[QUOTE="Barn Owl, post: 575421, member: 4864"]Yeah, I can't believe I missed that damage, especially since I turned it around to look at both sides. The only thing that I could think of is that, since I kmoved it to several different pockets to find a safe place, a piece of the mother of pearl must have fallen off in the process and been crushed underfoot. I asked my Israeli friend to translate the Hebrew for me, and she said that it says Yerushalem, which is the aramaic pronounciation and not the current Hebrew one. I hope it isn't a poppy seed :( Normally I'd agree about the lack of lettering on the box, but this was a similar (albeit silver) one I saw at a museum today: [ATTACH=full]173809[/ATTACH] Also when I googled Silver Etrog box I saw others with similar lined fruit.
