Imperial Russia two small eagles to ID

[Frozzer]

Hi to all

I'm new on forum and I want to introduce myself

My name is Michal and I live in Poland, I'm interested in imperial russia - especially in relicts from battlefields.

Some times ago on a daylight came this two eagles

they has been found with one small silver button with eagle sitting on axes (pioneer units as I assume)

IMHO they came from shoulderboards

maybe you can identyfy this eagles? and have any icongraphy or photos wich could be help to identify ?

on chest is Nicolas 2 symbol

thanks for help

and greetings from Poland

Hi Michal,

Both of your eagles have come from Pilots boards.

Its hard to tell if these are originals. but they should have a blackened finish.

Nice eagles.

they are 1000% original, I saw the moment when my friend found them.

eagles are in green patina (90 years in ground) but one of them have on end of left wing small part of silver finish

maybe you have any photos of this cind of badges, or maybe some icongraphy?

eagles has been found in place, where in 1914 y russian army was surrender - calls Tannenberg
