This symbol is used by an Italian friend when he writes to me.

the "chi rho" is one of the earliest Christian symbols. It consists of the first two letters of Christ in Greek (XP) superimposed on one another. It is depicted in a variety of ways, and sometimes combined with the alpha and omega and other Christian symbols.
The circle, having no beginning or end, symbolizes eternity or God. Three entwined circles represent the Trinity, with its three eternal and unified members.
As a symbol of royal authority, the crown usually signifies Christ, who is the "King of Kings." (1 Tim 6:13) It can also symbolize the "crown of life," or heaven (Rev 2:10).

I believe the "P" and the "X" represent "Jesus Christ". Not sure about the E's - perhaps eternal life? The PX dates back to the middle ages - it has links to the word pax which means peace. As is basic Christian knowledge, Jesus Christ is the prince of peace.
I'm not sure how correct this answer is. Sorry.

First day,
Welcome to Religion and Spirituality.
People will help if they can,
People will be cruel if they can
Check your questions before asking to avoid the mean people. (There are a few very crude people here.)
Trust in yourself...
P.S.
Where have you seen this symbol?
