Description
Nice, original medal, very beautiful. In 14K Gold, stamped .585, weighs about 7 grams. About 1 1/2" by 1 3/8".Very good condition, but there is some loss of the enameling on the upper cross bar on reverse. Rare Civil award, fine centerpiece to a collection.
Recipient of the award by the Tsar would have received hereditary nobility, in the old Russian class system.
I listed it in a WW1 category, but could be much older. Appears to be 3rd class. No ribbon, but very good looking! Take care, Ron. P.S. prior listing was deleted by
authorities on
account my model was
