RUSSIA - A ENAMEL KHODYNKA CUP OR 'CUP OF SORROWS' bearing the cyphers of Nicholas and Alexandra Romanov eagle within geometric patterns. Note: This beaker was among many that were distributed along with food presents and commemorative scarves to celebrate the coronation of Nicholas II, as had been the long-standing tradition in Russia. On the morning of 18 May 1896 over half a million revellers gathered on the ragged Khodynka Field in Moscow in anticipation of the presents and especially the prized enamel commemorative cups. A whispered rumour swept through the crowd that the cups contained a gold coin and, in the confusion, a stampede ensued in which over a thousand people were trampled to death in what has become known as the Khodynka Tragedy. This event was taken as an omen of things to come for the rest of Nicholas' reign. The coronation cup became known in Russia as the Cup of Sorrows and the Tsar himself got the nickname of 'Bloody Nicholas', despite his best efforts to compensate the families of the victims.
