The signet originates from the Yusupovs’ collection. A hypothesis as to the identity of the owner of the triple carnelian intaglio bearing a coat of arms, a monogram DN and an award is proposed. Additional evidence hinting at the owner’s name is provided by the Masonic motto on the seal matrix.

We will talk about a group of such seals belonging to the Ostsean nobility in this article. The stamps are found on the last sheet that concludes the contract for the purchase of a plot of land.

When identified, the coats of arms revealed a link to a marriage between noble families of Musin-Pushkin and Vonlyarlyarsky from Saint-Petersburg. The monogram in the center denoted the husband's surname. On June 1845 Mikhail Vonlyarlyarsky married Vera Musina-Pushkina. Service records uncovered in the Russian State Historical Archive provide new insights into the history of the family the once owned the screen.

VI Международный Нумизматический Симпозиум «ПриPONTийский меняла: деньги местного рынка» (Севастополь – Балаклава, 16–20 сентября 2019 г.)
В настоящей статье на основе анализа нескольких сотен изделий фирмы «Фаберже» впервые будет предпринята попытка выявить основные принципы, которыми руководствовались мастера фирмы при использовании нумизматических памятников в изделиях, а также представлена классификация изделий по специфическим признакам обнаруженных в ходе изучения данной темы.
Two major monogram types were used in the Russian Empire: a monogram with a crown (nobility) and without a crown (all other social classes). The research identified no less than 5,000 pieces created by the Fabergé firm, all of them bearing monograms with a crown. Such a vast number of monograms attributable to an enormous amount of commissions from the House of Romanovs for bespoke gifts for both members of the imperial family and their relatives living abroad. It has been established that over 80% of all pieces bear monograms of donors, with the rest of the monograms designating donees.
While attempting to attribute the pieces based on the monograms they bear, the researchers encountered quite a few controversies: most of them stemmed from the duplication of their famous clients’ initials. One such example is a cigarette case that auctioned at Sotheby’s in 2009. The monogram on the cigarette case can be deciphered in two ways – as WA and as AW: in the first case, the cigarette case might have belonged to Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich (1847–1909), whereas in the second case it might have been his son, Andrey Vladimirovich (1879–1956). Incorrect interpretation of the monogram, therefore, may lead to the misattribution of the object. As thorough examination of these works has clearly demonstrated, it is not enough to decipher a monogram to establish the provenance of the piece – one needs to corroborate it with solid evidence from archives or other documentary sources.
