We could not determine the identity of the subject, decorated with green and Golden trim with Golden monogram "N". There has been speculation about prinadlejnosti things 1st East Siberian shelf Strelkova. Up to 1894 he had the patronage of the heir Grand Duke Nicholas Alexandrovich, future Emperor Nikolai II, and a coded message in the form of a calligraphic "N", same as later on the Imperial monogram, but without the numbers. However, in this case binding finish color of the subject would be crimson, the traditional infantry units of the Russian army. In the end, it's green and gave us an identity plates of one of the brigades of the Separate corps of Border guards who have been assigned a light green color and applied gold metal appliance. In the Corps there was only one team whose name began with "N" — Novobryanskaya, named from the town of Novobureisk Miechowski district, Kielce province.

It should be noted that the finish color of the object closer to the traditional dark green velvet of the Ministry of Finance than to the light-green cloth, used by the guards in 1893 the Manufacturer – Dulevo factory of the Association of the heirs of M. S. Kuznetsov. Such artifacts relating to the Border guard, was lost for the most part during the First world and Civil wars, and in our days almost never occur.
