Looks like a fascinating burr, and one thing I consider typical for Stephan's burrs is what I tend to call "Baumegger hooks" -- the U-shaped hooks he designs into many of his pieces with 2x3xn or 3x3xn grid.<br /><br />I still have one of these burrs to solve, and it is in a cage: Ruebezahl. It has 6 pieces of 3x3x9 grid, and there is a 1x3 gap between them. Also contains those U hooks.<br /><br />To answer your question about the markings: It is an abbreviation for Stephan's name and the year, i.e. "Ste 16". The line over the year is something typically found in southern Germany or Austria. They tend to highlight year numbers that way."<br /><br />Thanks for the info Goetz!<br /><br />Kevin<br /><a href="http://www.puzzlemad.co.uk" rel="nofollow">Puzzlemad</a><br />Kevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05649523779226834414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3341941751324943000.post-29591073015884363052016-06-12T20:58:32.539+01:002016-06-12T20:58:32.539+01:00You are absolutely right!
