<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 82251, member: 33"]The case has <b>A III </b>on the front. And it has a crown at the top. Very likely to be related to Tsar Alexander III of Russia (1845-1894). I doubt that it belonged to him but more likely that it was somebody in his entourage. I found this badge that was awarded to some who served with him. The style is somewhat different but has some of the same elements.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://ua-ru.com/images/3000-3999/3184/3184.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://ua-ru.com/images/3000-3999/3184/3184.php" rel="nofollow">http://ua-ru.com/images/3000-3999/3184/3184.php</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
