When I look at my "picture" with the 21 Niger crosses, I guess it must be the cross named Karaga. There are two square crosses of the 21 NIger crosses (Karaga and Abalak. Abalak has 3 round parts on the top around the circle, so it can't be that one... hence Karaga). Lovely.

Oh thank you Eva,
It is beautifully etched with a lot of care taken of the details.
I think that you are right with your assessment - I have not checked my pictures yet but the process of elimination often seems to work.
