paja Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Thanks for photo, here's one more from some of the auctions sites, obviously lower quality, sample, different producer, fake even? http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_02_2015/post-7937-0-67313200-1423920533.jpghttp://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_02_2015/post-7937-0-24308800-1423920540.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paja Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 One more, Ministry of Defense insignia, similar (lower) quality. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_02_2015/post-7937-0-46237000-1423920992.jpghttp://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_02_2015/post-7937-0-87035100-1423920998.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emanuel Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Aye,they are indeed lower quality but I do not wish to believe they are copies, maybe other makers? From the other hand, as you can see from the original website Serbian Armed Forces photo that you post, the General Stab badge of mine has the "french flowers" next to the Eagles legs, while the one you post from it doesn't, but lets keep it as an aside mark and not say they are copies.....

paja Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 I really don't know what to think about those two. Details are very poor, they have that "cheap" look, quality of the wreath and eagle are nowhere near yours,"enamel" is different, take a look at the handles of the sabers...

Emanuel Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I see, but I cannot say with certainty, as these are new ones and almost Non-existant on the market still, maybe different makers, we will see. Here is a clear photo from the obverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

922F Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Paul, these are Republika Srpska [independent entity within Bosnia and Herzegovina] awards, if that's what you are asking. Sash with badge = Order of Nemanjic while other is Karageorge Star. These well designed awards reprize elements of Kingdom of Serbia awards. see also GMIC thread 'Medals from the Republika Srpska'. Image from a Republika Srpska site shows a display of some awards in cases. ' alt='' class='ipsImage' >' alt='' class='ipsImage' > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paja Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Greetings Paul,Those are actually Republika Srpska decorations. The one with the sash is Order of Njegoš 1st class (it comes togehter with breast star). The other one is Order of the Star of Karađorđe, it could be part of a 1st class (badge worn on sash + golden breast star) or 2nd class set (badge worn on neck ribbon + silver breast star).There were more information in Republika Srpska topic, unfortunately as you said photos are still not available...
