<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kate62790, post: 236579, member: 4659&quot;]I found this pendant at a yard sale and after much agonizing research found out quite a bit about the time period it was created and where. It is russian, bearing the double headed eagle and two anchors crossed behind it&#039;s back. Three crowns over the eagle. On the breast is a shield depicting what I believe is supposed to be saint George slaying a dragon, and at the base is a second shield depicting a sword topped with a crown, and two other weapons that I could not identify. Both shields appear to be amber filled.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is what exactly is this? Is it some kind of military badge? Or just a civilian pendant? It is hand hammered and considering the detail of the craftsmanship and precious metal content I felt it might have had a more prestigious purpose.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you!</p><p><br /></p><p>Update! I cropped the photo and it uploaded[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
