OK, they are not really “hidden” and they are not really “watermarks” but I hope you find the photo of interest. This eagle is from the reverse of a 1914 Russian 20 Kopek coin. Perhaps someone can explain to me about all the devices included in the Russian eagle. Very best regards, collect89
Since nobody offered an explanation, I looked up the Russian eagle on the Internet. Supposedly, the double-headed eagle was originally a Byzantine symbol, adopted by the Russian tsars. One eagle head represents the East and the other represents the West. The horseman in the middle has been described as St. George. The orb and scepter are grasped in the eagle's claws. Above the eagle's heads is the crown. This doesn’t explain all the little things in the feathers. Can someone explain what they are all about? Very best regards, collect89
