Imperial Russia What medals?

[Noor]

Hi,

I got two medals or Jettons and would like to know what they are? Probably not Imperial period. Are they some kind a patriotic pieces, what everyone bought on the street before communists took the power?

First one is here.

And here is second one.

Hello, Noor!

You have jettons of Russian Provisional Government (1917). First - "For Fighters of Liberty", second - "Free Russia".

Thanks for information IVB! So, like I was thinking as well - something unofficial, common and cheap. They are for a trade if someone are interested (also those two:
