    I believe this is a Russian Orthodox medal commemorating the appointing of the Metropolis in 1649 in Russia. But since I cannot read/write cyrillic I'm stumped as to what it is.

    There's an American flag in there and looks like a Russian one as well.

    Anyone can help decipher it? Thanks in advance.
