So I've taken some shots to see if any of you can shed light on it. Google is very confusing - it seems I can get one of these for between 20 euros and 222 euros!!

Just in case any of you cannot read the marks - they are: PUENTE ACR ARZOBISPO (TOLEDO) Thanks for all of your encouraging words ...[/QUOTE]
