~ Ob du Verlust hast ob Gewinn ~
 
If you're going to play cards or gamble, take your winnings or losses lightly or you probably shouldn't be playing. This etched stein with French cards is marked with the Mettlach logo, mold number 1395 and dated 1909. It is the mate to the stein with German cards and mold number 1394.
 
Ob du Verlust hast ob Gewinn
mit leichtem Sinn nimm Beides hin.
Whether you have losses or winnings
take both with a light temper.
