A cast iron group of galloping djighhity, Kasli foundry, circa 1894

applied with two silver plaques, inscribed in Cyrillic, "From the adoring commander and officers of the ocean going gunboat TERETS, 1894, " and " to H.M. The Queen of the Hellenes, Olga Konstantinova"

Olga (1851-1926), Queen of Greece, was grandaughter of Nicholas I and grandmother of Prince Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh.  She married George I of Greece in 1867 and founded a hospital in Athens for Russian military personnel. She was active in welcoming Imperial Russian naval vessels to Greece. The "Terets" was commissioned in 1886 and in 1918 joined the service of the Bolsheviks. However later that year the White Army retook the vessel and it saw action as part of the Anglo- French forces during the civil war.  In 1922 it was renamed "Socialist Banner". Mikhail Fedorovich Lozhinsky commanded the "Terets"  in 1893-94.
