Russia - Cross for the storming of Bazargik 1810


Description

Cross for the storming of Bazargik on 22 May 1810. Made of real silver. Size: 37x35mm. Weight: 11,53gr. Good condition 2.

During the Russian-Turkish war from 1806 to 1812, Russian troops invaded the city of Bazargik (today Dobrich, located in northeastern Bulgaria). On 13 June 1810, the cross was donated and awarded to deserving Russian officers who had received neither the 4th Class Order of St George nor the 4th Class Order of St Vladimir during this battle. The non-commissioned officers and crews involved in the storming received a silver medal. Selivanov explains (in NU35 p. 111 f.) that this cross was also made by jewelers as a second production.
