This is a strange one. A concrete base, which looks as if it was pored into a plastic kids bucket and turned upside down as a base after the concrete had set.
A cross of steel pipes was mounted into the concrete. On the top and at the ends of each arm of the cross, are mounted plastic set of three balls fused together to create the Bible looking design.
In the center of the cross is another cross, this one made of wood. It is set at 90° to the standing cross to create a crucifix. An at this crossroads of crosses, and on top of, is a wooden wreath to signify the Crown of Thorns.
All of the above is spray painted silver. Since it has been up a while, the paint is no longer a clear silver, but a muted and almost dirty white in appearance.
The is no name, nor any other writing on the tombstone...nothing...nada, zip, nuttin'.
