Eric Gaumann Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Thanks JC!As an aside, after some searching last night I think I found some weights on Yuri's(?) site. Being in the Russian language it's a bit hard to decipher but it seems he includes size and weight there.And as Ed said elsewhere with all the variations and subvariations there can be discrepencies.But thanks so much for your help.

Eric Gaumann Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Are we getting any closer to getting some rough dates for when these were awarded?I'd like to get an approximation for my T1 V2 #1753.Right now I'm guessing 1960, plus or minus 5 years.I've got my MoC down to '55 +/-3 and my HLM to '54 +/-2No clue on my Polar Star...Thanks!

Vatjan Posted November 17, 2006 Author Share Posted November 17, 2006 1552 was awarded on 19-sept-1964 and 1920 on 18-dec-1968, that should narrow it down a bit for you.So at around 100 awardings per annum yours was probably awarded in 1966Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Haynes Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Excerpted from Bob's really useful master list of serial numbers and dates of award (see http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=9917 and THANKS, BOB! ), here are known data points for the Order of Combat Valor (A30):1,049 01/10/19591,552 29/09/19642,146 00/06/19692,695 19722,777 19714,836 15/07/19855,138 03/04/19865,685 27/03/19876,300 09/07/19886,515 04/07/19916,854 29/08/19956,885 28/08/19956,972 29/08/19957,388 15/09/19958,068 09/08/19998,126 09/08/1999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 In an effort to breathe some life back into the forum, thought I'd share some eye-candy of major types.Serial numbers:2717874 (pinback) / 7120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 This one always struck me as being too similar to The Polar Star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 This one always struck me as being too similar to The Polar StarAgreed, I think the intent was that the pentagonal (vs. hexagonal) shape would make it visually distinctive. Not sure they succeeded.Interestingly, this is the award being discussed most frequently for termination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Does anyone have a short, reasonably elegant CLOTH ribbon bar group including the ribbon for this order? I am putting together an article on the order for JOMSA and need an example to show.Also, should anyone wish to read over, comment upon, abuse, and otherwise help my draft, please contact me by e-mail (maharao@yahoo.com).Bayarlalah!

Lingqi Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I would like to contribute my collection, I bought this from Alexei long time ago. S/N969 shall be the biggest number so far within T1V1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Thanks. Yes, that is the highest in that variation. With 1038 the highest in Type 1.2, I think we can posit 1000 of type 1.1? Let me see if I can make changes in my forthcoming JOMSA article to reflect this. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
