Greg,

When you get down posting that partisan badge how a close-up of that Mongolian Order of the Red Combat Banner?

[Greg Collins]

I had hoped to have some more images by now but, alas, the sun did not cooperate. Will try again in a couple of days. In the mean time I am really enjoying the results of this thread so far. Beautiful stuff!

John, do you mean the Mongolian Red Banner of Labour or the Combat Valour?

[Ralph P]

Hey John - Is there any markings on the back of your Order for military Merit 3rd class? I have posted mine...

Valter,

Thanks for posting! I love that Order of the Republic .

Here are a few Yugoslavian Orders I have..

1. Order of the People's Army
2. Order for Military Merit - 3cl
3. Order of the Partisan Star w/ Rifles -3cl

Hi Ralph,

No, which is indicitive of earlier made pieces.

[John F.]

This is a Bulgarian Order of George Dimteriov. It is similiar to the Soviet Order of Lenin.

Here is a close-up of the planchet.

Hey John - Thanks. If you check my book page 156 you will also see the document that went with the medal.

Hi Ralph,

No, which is indicitive of earlier made pieces.

Hi Greg,

Red Banner for Combat Valor.

Here's some Soviet badge enamel...

[Greg Collins]

And some Soviet orders and medals enamel. Oh yeah, you'll find a couple of post Soviet and Umalatova items in the bunch.

John, I'll try to get those close-ups tomorrow.

Here is another Bulgarian award. This is the Order of the Red Flag.

[John F.]

Here is a close-up. This is an early issued piece as you can tell by it's serial number of "22" (circa 1950). This order was probably was awarded to someone important but without the award booklet we will never know who it was .

[John F.]

Wow over 240+ views and only 5 people contributing to the thread, pretty sad .

I remember back in the day (3 yrs ago) a thread like this was a call to arms.

[John F.]

This is a North Korean People’s Army Guards Badge. This is an early (1950’s circa) Soviet made version with screw back fastener. It is similar to the Soviet Badge of the same name and awarded to units and formations that distinguishing themselves during the War of Unification, also known as the Korean War.

Not sure where to begin, so I'll post a few overall snapshots of what I have. If anyone cares to see the closeup enamel let me know
