Cross "For Loyalty Black Sea Cossacks".
Not a current medal of Pridnestrovie, this was given by President Igor Smirnov to the Black Sea Cossacks (Ukraine) who fought for Pridnestrovie's independence in 1991-1992. They were commanded by Colonel Kucher, who was killed in action in Bender in June, 1992.
Not the highest quality medal, it is of stamped brass (100% reverse) and the paint (possibly enamel) is certainly "outside the lines". A good addition to the collection, though.

Re: Medal for Loyalty to the Black Sea Cossacks
A detail of the front... I don't know for sure who the woman is- I imagine it's Katherine. If you know who it is, by all means chime in. As far as the painting goes, and especially on the arms of the cross, I believe I could have done better with a mop. In all the examples I have seen of this medal (about 5 so far), the paint-job is the same.
