    1. It seemed to me, that the Horse and Soldier on yours has a little more wear, whereas other areas on mine have more wear than yours. Allways difficult to say from pictures. Yes, yours is on the left and mine is on the right. No, Dolf, i disagree, yours is in so bad condition, you should throw it in the trash can... but in my trash can Gerd
    2. Dolf, i have noticed some differences though. Look for example at the areas, i have marked. Mine has less wear but there are bigger differences than what could have been caused by wear. Here is a comparison:
    3. Though, a nice piece. I guess, i will never even handle one, but i am okay with that. Imagine, how many nice groups you could buy for 33k
    4. Yes, there are indeed ghost letter. I don?t know, if this in an uncommon thing, but all the one, i have checked, don?t have it. Gerd
    5. Nice Card, Greg You can still buy this "Liebig Fleischextrakt"(Liebig meat extract) here in Germany.
    6. Hello Gentlemen, i found this on ebay. Please take a look on the box and the certificate? What is this? A collectors item? Anyone has an idea? The Order itself looks okay to me, as far as i can tell from this photos. Gerd
    7. Yes, i have seen that one. Very impressive and very expensive
    8. Interesting. That would have been a nice group, like it seems. In the Herfurth-Cataloge there is the 25 years MPR-Medal pictured with a soviet suspension and there are additionally the animal-symbols enameled, so there seem to be a special version for foreigners from both of these medals?!
    9. Ahhh, thanks, gentlemen, i never heard about that before. I knew about the "thick" and "thin" 25 years MPR, but not about "thick" and "thin" "We Won" Medals. Do you have ever seen this on pentagonal suspension? I have seen the 25years MPR Medal on this kind of suspension, but never the "We Won" Medal. Thanks again
    10. Very nice and unusual Woundbadge, Gordon. I hope, Jens F. will post his examples here as well again He has a great collection of unusual Woundbadges. Gerd
    11. Dolf, our medals come from the same batch, 24 numbers difference, obviously the same engraver:
    12. Dolf, thanks for the reply. And Thanks to Ed for the started threads about the Medals. Should we distinguish between these variations? If so, then i?ll post mine in the threads, Ed started. Gerd
    13. This is obviously a "NIB" as Battushig only shows one of this Medals where the enameled Ribbon-suspender has three rivets on the reverse. There is a Honorary Labor Medal listed in this style, but no Medal of Combat exactly like this. I guess, its a common variation, but its not listed in the Battushig-book.
    14. Rick, it seems, like Ed may have mixed this Medal up with the "25 years of MPR"-Medal!? Indeed a slippery slope. This is actually a really nice Medal and i can provide one of the missing digits:
    15. What? The value of the glory 3rd just makes a few percent of the value of the whole group. I agree completely with Soviet, thats a lovely set and i would be proud to own it, no doubt. Gerd
    16. I just love the feedbacks: "This miracle! Now I am rich!" "The clever people. Large money!" All of his 5 buyers only have 1 feedback
    17. Wonderful group and great move from the grandson to give you the chance to obtain the complete group. Could you post some closeups of the military photos in post #5? Thanks for taking the time to post it here
    18. Absolutely outstanding Collection of Lifesaving Medals, Wild Card All your rare medals even seem to have nice original ribbons, is that true? Thanks again for posting your treasures
    19. Oh my god, what a collection. Thanks for sharing, Alan.
    20. Nothing special, just a fairly high numbered Polarstar, but its my first Mongolian Order, so i thought, i post it here. They are really nice and its for sure not my last mongolian order. Thanks for looking Gerd
