Ed_Haynes Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Thanks.And the colours of the cases, by the way, are not as different as they look in the photos. A nice rich claret for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Craig Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) Ed,What you have is basically the same as the two bronze ones that I posted. A flat backed one with the hammer and torch in relief or a 1964 issue plus the dished silver type which is the 1985 issue. Both have the 1980s style pin on the ribbon so date from that era. I noticed that the document is dated 1988 for the dished type which is correct.Regards,GordonPS-If you want a copy of the Large Medals Book they are still available for around 9,000.00 to 10,000.00 Forints. We could pick you up one if are interested. Edited May 25, 2007 by Gordon Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Thanks Gordon! I am learning. Slowly.A copy of the book (expertly translated) is, as they say in India, "just coming". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasmor58 Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Extreemly interesting and informative posts on the Order of Labour. I have learned quite a bit from this. However, this may be an elementary question, but what was the criteria for the glod, silver and bronze awards?Jim Morrison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
