Imperial Russia Unknown Russian mark - Order of the Double Dragon

[JapanX]

* the First Type Double Dragons (1882-1901) standard neck badges were mostly manufactured in Europe;

* the First Type Double Dragon breast stars (transitional type) had the star corpus manufactured in Europe but with a Chinese manufactured centre (which was a reduced size First Type Double Dragon badge)

* the Second Type Double Dragons (1902-1911) were mostly manufactured in China. The European / Russian insignia were typically marked (and usually much clearer than my example!), while the Chinese insignia were typically unmarked.

I`ve always wondered why Chinese workshops couldn`t manufacture corpuses...

...(and usually much clearer than my example!) ...

Come on!
