    1. Thanks a lot for your replies, wangyaokang2003 and JapanX! Could you, please, inform me about the value of my specimen? Is it often to meet?
    2. Dear sirs! Please, help with identifying this badge. What do the numbers "2.01.4.19.22.1." mean?
    3. Dear sirs! Please, help with identifying this badge.
    4. The result of comparison confirmed -JapanX was absolutely right! But have one more look, how accurate was the master of convertation.
    5. And here are two more belt buckles.
    6. JapanX, thank you ever so much!!!
    7. Thanks a lot again, JapanX! I hoped, it was a plane, not "土"... It is just 1 sm in length, but has two pleasant marks... Besides, the stopper ring is not a simple one.

      Nice unknowns

      Have you ever come across this small badges? Please, share any info! 1. National Air Defense? 2. 3. 4.
    9. Тhanks a lot, JapanX! Yes... Couldn't even imagine THAT! But for what purpose?! Later will compare the table medal and the buckle.
    10. Hello, jentlemen! Here is a not incurious buckle. On the averse we can see some theme of Tsushima battle and wellknown words of Admiral Togo, the date "October 1934" and Mint's mark (slightly seen). On the reversе - Togo' contour (think so) plus some "remains" of kanji above. What is the idea? Why only contour on the reverse and no more details of Admiral's portrait at all? May be, because 1934 is the year when Togo passed away?
    11. Many thanks to you, JapanX! I highly appreciate your help! It seems to be a character "九" at the line of pin, in the middle. And the same seems to be behind the pin of the badge, shown at "AM".
    12. Hello, gentlemen! Hello, Brian! Here are some Red Cross door badges.
    13. One more beautiful prewar badge! What is the kanji above the anchor?
    14. Great! Very interesting! Thank you, JapanX!
    15. I hope, one more old good badge and silver colour kanji on the lid will be interesting.
    16. A door plaque of afterwar Associaton (Okayama-shi branch). Wood(!). Size: 198x86x10 mm.
    17. Dear Sirs! Please, have a look at this nice badge. No kanji. Size appr. 15x15 mm. What it about? May be some connection to Nakajima Factory? Thank you for your attention.
    18. Since we have an interesting idea of JapanX about reanamelling and heating up the badge, I have inspected it once more. To my opinion it is is more likely to be patina, not the traces of heating. Suppose, the badge was heated up. In that case there will be traces of heating around four rivets. Because the rivets are exactly in the area of assumed heating and they are thermal stress concentrators. But I can not see anything wrong around the rivets. One more thing about the rivets. The heads of them (on the reverse of badge) have more wide “minus” slots and that slots are oriented approximately vertically, not 45 degrees, as it mostly happens to be. What do you, gentlemen, think about all of that?
    19. Nick, thanks a lot! Heating - very interesting! And in result, brown colour turned out to be orange? May that white remains, you marked, be the result of heating? But why the longest rays have no white remains?
