Father,

I am writing from North Bend on the Oregon coast. I have an odd question for you. I recently received two crucifixes from a friend that have an inscription on the back which reads CnACNNCOXPAHN (I believe there should be a space in there somewhere) . I have burned up the internet trying to find its meaning. A greek speaking acquaintance thinks it is Russian abbreviation which would be supported by some other sites that discuss it as being a Russian or Byzantine style crucifix. Do you happen to know its meaning? My Catholic priest and 3 deacons have no idea. I Googled Russian Orthodox churches to come up with your contact info. Thank you and best regards.
