A RUSSIAN BADGE OF THE 3RD PERNOV GRENADIER REG.

A stylized gold cross with white enamel corners imitating the St. George banner awarded to the Regiment. On the rays of the cross are the gold cyphers of the Emperors Alexander I, Nicholas I, Alexander II and Alexander III beneath gold Imperial crowns. In the centre of the cross is a silver oxidized grenade with gold flames, on the top of which is the gold cypher of Emperor Peter I. Between the upper rays of the cross is the gold cypher of Emperor Nicholas II beneath the gold Imperial crown. Underneath the cypher is an applied gold ribbon (the badge differs on the headgear of the ranks of the Regiment) with the inscription For Distinction. Between the lower rays of the cross is a gold cypher of King Friederich-Wilhelm IV of Prussia. On the left and right of the grenade there are the dates 1710 and 1910 marked in gold.
