It has what appears to be a really old embossed leather cover with brass and mother of pearl flowers and a cross. Really beautiful book. I can't find a date on it, thought someone might know the era it came from. Thanks

I can't read german but on the first page it does have the name Wilhelm Nakatenus, S.J.

Without seeing the book I couldn't say for sure, but if the printing in it is of the 'Fraktur' type - ornate Gothic style script that is difficult to read - it is at least 100 years old if not more.
If it is a Catholic book it may have the name of the Pope who was reigning at the time it was published so that would give you an approximate clue as to the date.
