    1. Glad you liked them! Mitya really worked pretty hard with his scanner and camera. He is our heraldic angel P.S. The lion from posts # 570 and #571 is really something!
    2. This was the last piece from Hermitage museum collection. 18 out of 48 ... Others are still in the vault`s ... Regards, Nick
    3. Old buddy Dmitry Osipov This one was made between 1899 and 1903.
    4. Yep, another possible scenario "for long meritorious service" The quality of these medals is unbelievable ... No wonder though ... Looks like they all were made by private jewellery workshops.
    5. Hi Pieter, as I said - quasi rare I wonder what cavaliers felt when they got these "under my sign manual and affixed with the seal of State" docs without actual "sign manual" ... Regards, Nick
    6. These are quasi rare! Late 00s? Early 10s? Cool info Pieter! It was a very (well not really as I realized a little bit later ) private offer ... Who wouldn't?! Now try to imagine how I was pissed off when these slipped through my fingers! Regards, Nick
    7. 1st class bears so called "double signature". Unfortunately it is diffused opinion that this is really two different emperor`s signatures! Another naive popular belief ... It is simply Hirohito signature + Hirohito trying to mimic his father signature It was issued on May 10, 1926
