    russian.jpg russian2.jpg russian3.jpg Any idea how old this is or what the lettering translates to? The end of the last word is rubbed off

    Does appear to be Russian. Photo not close enough to see well.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    I think the circle on the back says it is made in Moscow. The picture is small but I managed to download it and zoom in a bit. The two-headed eagle would mean it is from the tsarist period, so early 20th century or earlier. That's all I've got.

    If I try to enlarge any more than 4X, image will distort....but I'm not sure even what the image IS, let alone what it says, although it does appear to be in Russian.....

    There’s a 1 mb maximum for images on this forum. The image on my phone is 3 mb so I emailed it to myself and made it smaller that’s why it’s blurry. Not sure if there’s a way around it??

    The words do translate to "Made (or Manufactured) in Moscow," as I thought.

    Very clear photo. Excellent! I don't know the meaning of the symbol at the bottom of the circle. Otherwise, I just see the two-headed eagle.

    Below and partly overlapping the bottom of the circle there might be something stamped into the metal, but I can't tell for sure.

    Yep, looks great! You can also decrease the file size by cropping out the unnecessary background :)
