Vertical Disc Dial
Unsigned
1550 or 1574; German
Gilt brass; 43 mm in diameter

One side of this vertical dial is decorated in relief with a crowned Christ seated on a throne, holding an orb and a sceptre and surrounded by an inscription with the date 1550.

However, one of the circular sectors is inscribed '15 74 M T K', which is possibly a signature but has not been identified.
