My Uncle brought this stein back from Germany in 1950's. I can't find one like it so please help...It is 1L, the body is a knarled oak tree with grass at the bottom, the handle is a branch with a knot hole on the elbow. The lid is pewter with an inlay the is the portrait of the bust of a balding man with mustach, he looks like he is in Prussian uniform gray with gold eplets and collar. There is a laural wreath circling lid. The front has helmet and shield crest in blue and silver the charge looks a yellow flower with 3 petals and 3 leaves. There is a banner that says "Wir Deutsche furchten Gott sons Nichts suf der Welt" there is a gold crown in the center of the banner. The bottom is only marked with a K stamped in the clay and the #1458. Sorry to be so long winded but without pictures I thought details would count. Thank you for any help you can give.
