Bob Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Nice overview - still missing the "ugly" latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 (edited) I, too, am still lacking a nasty all-brass Algan gadas Odon (happy, Rick? ). Anticipate an early remedy to this. Edited April 16, 2006 by Ed_Haynes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjcp Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 (edited) I've got several updates. Serial numbers etc. but I thought this was as good a place as any to start.New high ORBL type 2 #7020.I'll post both the front and the back 'cause I can never get enough of these.Front.Going by the award date of #6238: 15/04/1993 Bamyn Dojuu, I'm guesssing that this one would be from the very late '90's/early 2000 or could it be unissued???It's in near perfect shape so who knows...They did switch to the Brass ones so maybe this was issued.... the plot thickens Edited July 5, 2006 by fjcp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Haynes Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 (edited) Nice late silver pinback. Issued? Unissued? Surplus stocks from the state bank? Hard to say until some records open up.As an update:Type 1 (screwback) - Low 83/High 3744Type 2 (silver pinback) - Low 4029/High 7020Type 3.1 (bronze pinback numbered) - Low 9050/High 9060Type 3.2 (bronze pinback unnumbered - unawarded "escapee"?)The current (ugly) bronze pinback is quite uncommon (close to "rare"?), although they are out there. They are clearly being awarded. When I was in UB, I saw television news coverage of interviews with recent recipients after a bestowal ceremony (all in Mongolian, so working from images only here); all recipients were clearly wearing the bronze varieties.

Ed_Haynes Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 (edited) Playing with my new scale today. Some interesting and weighty results on the few RBLs on "home leave". All Type 1 (screwback).83 - 64.80 grams198 - 61.90 grams484 - 62.55 grams1423 - 60.05 gramsAll weighed without screw nuts of course.Something to think about??Tells us something about (1) variability in manufacture, (2) decline in standards over time, and (3) the dangers of expecting too much standardization?

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:none / 1077484 / 4596 (pinback) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I guess I really am just an old-fashioned person at heart. I much prefer the 2 earlier designs. I can certainly understand the changes. The cost and labor involved in producing the early designs of each of the orders must have simply become prohibitive at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
