[Peppe864]

Hello guys!

 

I have used the old friend google, checked some books but I have failed to ID these badges, I have come to the conlusion that they are from imperial russia.

 

Can anyone help med with ID on these badges?

 

Any help appriciated, many thanks beforehand.

 

And I don´t have better or more pictures.

Hello!

 

Many thanks for your reply and the information regarding the badges.

 

I don´t understand why you are jumping to conlusions? No need to be rude.

 

I am not going to buy these badges, I do not collect imperial russian items. 

 

I am not saying anything about the originality of these badges, I just simply was asked by a friend if I new which regimental designations these badges had.

 

I couldn´t find the info through google nor in the old books I have, just general award books of international medals and orders.

 

That is why I asked here.

Thanks for posting those pics @Peppe864, it'll help others understand what's fake/real. There is very little info online, there's a couple Russian forums that a couple guys contribute here as well.

 

@Simius Rex, can you recommend any good reference books on Russian badges? As you've pointed out, it's a minefield and so many fakes. (that and I can never have enough books in my library!)

Sergei Patrikeev's 3 volume work on russian badges  is by far the best work bilingual russian&english

 

Costly but worth every kopeck

Unfortunately all above mentioned books will not save you from modern fakes of imperial russian badges.

Introductory catalogues at best.
