Dolf Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 (edited) Ok, now for the NIBs.NIB apparently USSR - Mongolia Friendship.This one is quite larger than the other round Badges I'll post below and the one Ed posted above (which I also have). This one has a 36,50mm diameter, while the others are smaller, for example 24,04mm fot the one Ed posted above.Dolf Edited September 24, 2006 by Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolf Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 (edited) And one more NIB: Red Star on center with 40 inside it, referring to the dates on the bottom, 1945 - 1985, and with 3 flags. Anyone knows those flags?Obverse and reverse. I posted the reverse of this one because it has some marks.Dolf Edited September 25, 2006 by Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 And one more NIB. This one shows the USSR and Mongolian flags, and what seems to be a rocket. Space Friendship and/or cooperation? Not sure if what looks a "39" is a date or just letters!Again both obverse and reverse because again there are some marks on the reverse.Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennC Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 And one more NIB: Red Star on center with 40 inside it, referring to the lates on the bottom, 1945 - 1985, and with 3 flags. Anyone knows those flags?Obverse and reverse. I posted the reverse of this one because it has some marks.DolfThis is not Mongolian but Russian, and it's not a badge it's znachek.

I bought it from Mongolia, as being Mongolian, that's why I included it here.So I guess it's the same for the one I posted on Post #30?!Dolf Edited September 25, 2006 by Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 One more NIB with the Mongolian flag and another one I can't identify, with a long vertical pin.I guess I should check some "flags of the world" site... Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolf Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 And finally one of my favorites.Another NIB, but obviously Cuba - Mongolia Friendship.Notice that this one could be Cuban, as it's written in Spanish: "Granja Cubano Mongolesa", which means Cuban Mongolian Farm.Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 Lovely eye-candy Dolf. Clearly, these "friendhsip" badges are far, far more complex than we ever imagined.Great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Lovely eye-candy Dolf. Clearly, these "friendhsip" badges are far, far more complex than we ever imagined.Great! I don't know why (well in fact I guess I do know but as such opinion could be considered "political" better shut my mouth ) but I feel kind of fascinated by these Socialist period Friendship Badges/Pins "Workers of the World Unite" kind of reminds me of some good old days of my youth when I still used to believe in something... Well, guess I'm getting old, bitter and hopeless... Thanks buddy,Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Well, if indeed Glenn is right and it is confirmed by other experts that both pieces posted on Posts #29 and #30 are Russian and NOT Mongolian, in order to keep this thread well organised maybe some Moderator with the power to do so could perhaps delete both Posts #29 and #30, as well as Posts #31 + #33 + #36 and #38 + obviously this last one too (#42). Just to keep the thread clear and clean.Thanks,Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted September 27, 2006 Author Share Posted September 27, 2006 (edited) Only one god has that power, and it isn't me. There may, however, be a good reason to keep here (or maintain someplace) these badges from the "flip side" of Mongolian-Somebody friendship. Unless we document it (here), how can we know if a Cuban-Mongolian badge is Cuban or Mongolian?And thanks, Dolf, for hinting at your interest in these. Me too.

Eric Schena Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Hi all:Just thought I'd add some clarification on the flags for Dolf:Post 29: those three flags are actually the ensigns for the three branches of the Soviet military (from l. to r.: Air Force, Army, Navy)Post 32: That's the flag for North KoreaPost 34: That's the Czech flagPost 35: That's the Romanian flagHope that helps!Cheers,Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Many thanks for identifying those flags, Eric. Really appreciate it Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolf Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Dear Ed,The reason I asked for those pieces on Posts #29 and #30 to be deleted is because Glenn seems to have identified them as being Russian znacheks (?) and indeed these two seem to be the only ones that have those marks and the 20 kopeks price on the reverse, so apparently they don't belong in this thread. My fault, sorry By identifying the 3 flags on the one on Post #29 Eric confirms that at least this one is certainly not Mongolian, so I guess we could eliminate that one from this thread. The one on Post #30, despite having a Mongolian flag on it, according to Glenn is also a Russian 20 kopecks znachek (?) so I guess it could go either.That one from Post #39 is different. No marks or price on the reverse. And the simple fact it's written in Spanish doesn't exactly mean it's Cuban rather than Mongolian. I also have a mini-book with the Mongolian Constitution in Spanish, made in Mongolia, so this one could perfectly be Mongolian after all.Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
