This case requires concentration, so give me until tomorrow, unless someone smarter beats me to it and solves your puzzle.



Maker’s mark - И.A. - unknown to me. Still searching.

Orders of Saint Anna made by Moscow workshop of Ivan Alekseev /ИА/ | Medals of Asia :thinking:

To help you further, I need sharp photos (don’t take them handheld), on a uniform surface. Gently clean up any marked areas. The cropping should be symmetrical, otherwise I’ll waste time on unnecessary photo editing.

Photos should show the entire item and its essential parts, i.e. all markings, signatures, signs and symbols.

once again thanks for your help and interest, these are the best pics i can do with my old phone and tablet, have put into auction now so will see.









however i did pick up the following vodka tot cup and hopefully my homework is ok? any comments or corrections appreciated.

odessa, left facing profile (1899-1908?) MM - poss Melkin? as art nouveau style, period and area? There ia a very faint small assay mark under high magnification,AP - poss Aleksandr Romanov? unfortunatley is does not show on photos.

i also thought it looks like MM has been struck over other initials?

MM - maker’s mark. :thinking: :face_with_monocle:
