This is an antique Japanese military sake cup, decorated with a Chinese city gate with a Japanese flag flying on top, with some mountains in the back. The words on top are "Russo Japanese War Commemoration" and in the cherry blossom "March 10th Mukden Capture". The words on the exterior are "51st Reservist Infantry 6th Company". This would probably be a cup issued to soldiers of the unit after winning the Battle of Mukden in the final phase of the war.
