Alex, Unfortunately not. I did go through 2833 to 5000 and did not spot that castle insert. The look does remind me of a Girmscheid or Thewalt lid. I show a Thewalt castle insert lid in my article on Thewalt, but it is a different castle. I did find an article on unusual insert lids for Mettlach 2765, knight on a white horse, which normally has the tower lid. The article appears in the December 1998 Prosit (page 942). This insert lid shows a castle on a hill (a different castle than we are looking for though). This insert lid normally is on Mettlach 1998. The article speculates that it was a special order. I think they more likely replacement lids. I will continue searching and will let you know if I have any luck. Ron
