Could be an edition of this - note the four medallions within the gilt

Oh wow thank you that seems to be it, only it appears older. That could just be damage which wouldn't be a plus though.
the clasps are spot on and I'm no historian but I don't know what this symbol is doing on a Christian bible.




Wouldnt that be "The All Seeing Eye of Horas"? Seen on the dollar bill and on many free mason items? I only wonder because I don't understand the connection and my grandfather belongs to a free mason lodge.

Hello all 
I've come across this book and I can't seem to find information on it. I can only go by this image because the book is not in my possession yet.



- appears to be some type of bible
- could be a Dagmar cross


any ideas?!
