Item Description
An original enameled commemorative cup
from the Coronation of Tsar Nicholas II and
Tsarina Alexandra Feodorvna in 1896.
Nicholas was the ill fated last Tsar of Russia.
The cup bears the cyphers of both monarchs
with the Romanov double headed eagle on
the opposite side.
Over one thousand people were trampled
to death in a stampede to receive a cup
due to the rumor there was a gold coin inside.
This event was taken as an Omen of things
to come for the rest of Nicholas's reign......
and the Tsar himself got the nickname
" Bloody Nicholas ".
Note : Many chips to enamel work on rim
and base, the interior stained.
