~IRON CROSSES ON THE #1 SIDE~
 
You are buying one set of SIX 16mm (about 5/8") dice. These are custom dice that Chessex created for us.  This design replaces the pips on the #1 SIDE of each cube with a SILVER IRON CROSS!  The dice are Chessex' iridescent LEAF BLACK GOLD with SILVER pips on sides 2 thru 6.  The pips and images are recessed.  Corners and edges are rounded. 
 This is the "standard" size used in most board games, Farkel, 10,000, Yahtzee, etc.
 
The beautiful swirls of glossy ebony and metallic "gold-leaf" do bring "fool's gold" to mind.  It looks like real gold floating through the pearly, shiny black.  Each die is unique, not quite like any other, like snowflakes.  All are so pretty.  This is not real gold in these cubes.
 
This set of dice is BRAND NEW!

Of course, there is a military history associated with this cross, but I think it's a bit more contemporary referencing the biker, surfer and rebellious symbolism used since the 60's.
 
From Wikipedia:
 
 
 
The Iron Cross has been popular with many bikers, hot rodders, skinheads and others, using German iconic militaria to promote a tough-guy image, or as a symbol of rebellion or non-conformity.

In the 1960s, the Iron Cross was adopted by American surfers, who started wearing medals plundered by their fathers. Cal Look, Volksrod and other Volkswagen enthusiasts often use the Iron Cross as a symbol that reflects the car's country of origin. Ed Roth created accessories for surfers, hot rodders and bikers derived from German World War II trophies, which included the Surfer's cross and the Stahlhelm (also popular with the VW scene). There is an American hardcore band called Iron Cross. Roy Orbison has been filmed wearing an Iron Cross necklace while performing. Metallica lead singer and guitarist James Hetfield has a custom version of the ESP Eclipse (based on the Gibson Les Paul) with the Iron Cross emblazoned on it. This version is known as the "ESP JH-6 Iron Cross". Mortuus, the singer of the Swedish black metal band Marduk, is seen in many promotional and live photos wearing an iron cross on a choker chain. The Cult incorporated Iron Cross medals and imagery extensively for their Electric and Sonic Temple albums. Motörhead lead singer and bassist Lemmy can be seen wearing an Iron Cross live, and often in interviews as he owns a very large collection of Nazi memorabilia. WWE wrestler Triple H (Paul Levesque) has made a variation of the Iron Cross his logo since the early part of the 2000s; the symbol appears six times on his wrestling attire (front and back of trunks, on both elbow pads and on the sides of his boots).
