Old Believers recognize only an eight-pointed cross, whereas after Nikon's reform in Orthodoxy, four and six-pointed crosses were recognized as equal.
On the tablet of the crucifixion among the Old Believers it is usually not written I.Н.Ц.I., a "Царь Славы".
Old Believers do not have an image of Christ on their pectoral crosses, since it is believed that this is a person's personal cross.
