About this object

The medallion has in low relief the busts of Tsar Nicholas II and the Tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna facing to the right. The inscription around the medallion reads: "Nicholas II" and "Alexandra." It is so mounted that it is impossible to see any marks on the back. Probably made on the occasion of Nicholas II and Alexandra to Paris in 1896.
