    2. In other regulations it indicates anything. The cipher YR or IR identify it as the pieces of the period of Isabel II (1833-1868) and perhaps subsequent periods, republics and others to Alfonso XII King of Spain between 1874-1885, regency of María Cristina (1886-1902 ) and Reign of Alfonso XIIII (1902-1931), which would use the FRO7

      Cypher FY are the initials of the Catholic Kings, (F)ernando and (Y)sabel of the las regulation of 1998: "And on the reverse, the initials and crown of the Catholic Monarchs on Blue"

       

    3. The explanations of the regulations give rise to interpretations. In the founding of 1815 he says: "My name, as founder of the Order, on a blue field in a gold cipher, royal crown crowned in the center of the shield"

      The founder is the King Fernando VII. Cipher is FR (F)ernando (R)ey

    6. Croix-Rouge française (Val-de-Marne)

      Committed for almost a year alongside the public authorities, the volunteers of the Red Cross still respond today tirelessly to the various requests for support and assistance. To salute this commitment, the French Red Cross has created two new distinctions allowing to honor this flawless commitment. The medal, one per unit, is intended to salute an exceptional action. Considering everyone's commitment as such, the departmental office of Val de Marne chose not to choose between its 800 volunteers and decided, in agreement with its national chancellery, to have this decoration put back to its flag for the benefit of all. The departmental office prompted its local units to follow this idea and many of them have already followed suit. The badge will be given to each volunteer having committed at one time or another in the missions proposed by the Red Cross within the framework of the fight against the COVID-19. All these distinctions will take place by the end of spring.
