Jake the Dog Valued Member United States 226 Posts	Posted 08/23/2020 1:30 pm The obverse says "in the reign of Emperor Nicholas II". The reverse is something like "In memory of construction of the Ekaterinsky (Catherine) port on the Murman." The third paragraph on this site gives a bit about the ports importance in WWl. https://jfredmacdonald.com/worldwar...railway.html Edited by Jake the Dog 08/23/2020 1:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff
