We have Christmas balls from around the world! My wife decided to photograph and document. (Sounds like a plan)

However we have one that we are clueless. Any world travelers ever seen this symbol before?

Sorry for the quality... she used a telephone not a camera.

Any help would be gratefully accepted.

Happy New Year

Ok, I am showing my age with the name of the device.

But you know what is even funnier is that there is not a salesman at AT&T, Verizon, etc... that even have a clue what the signal to noise to ratio or transmit power of any of the devices they sell.
If one lives in rural America, it is they are the only spec that really matter.
Extremely sad. The salesman can quotes all sorts of fancy imaging specs, but none have any real meaning but the sensor(s) in the handheld are not large enough to reach any real quality level. Great for facebook and display on low resolution devices, but that beautiful sunset captured on vacation at when printed as a 16x24 will look like an out of focus collaboration of colors.
Of course in my IMHO

As for the original post... we are thinking Basel Switzerland... not sure

Telephone or Camera wink
