Medal "For Drunkenness".

Here is the Medal "For Drunkenness" (Медаль «За Пьянство») which was founded in 1714 by Peter I. The Medal is LARGE and weighs in the region of 7 kgs. It was affixed around the neck someone convicted of drinking related criminal offences for a period of time dependant on the severity of crime. The Medals were cast locally out of iron and there is a vast amount of variation.

Quite a hangover, wouldn't want to be a triple cavalier.

The Medal holds the record for the largest in history.
