Soviet My award groupings
Gerd Becker replied to Paul R's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Great stuff, Paul. Lets see some Medals... -
Thanks, Rick. That was the reason, why i bought it. Before i ordered it, i considered two groups and asked Rick Research for help. Everything, what was in his anwer-pm was: "CHINESE! CHINESE! " Except one other very expensive group on CollectRussia and another one(don?t remember, where), this is only the third mounted SSFM, i have seen. Gerd

I am glad, you like it, Bryan. Yes, the old faded ribbon was something, i noticed immediately. The ribbon is most probably still the old one. Its also for me the first SSFM, that i see mounted. Gerd

Thanks, gentlemen Andreas, absolutely, i don?t regret anything. These are nice Type 1 Campaign Medals with a lot of character Gerd

Thanks again. Its getting clearer. Take your time with the rest.

Thanks, Rick. You are the greatest. I will try to get the research for this group. Sounds very mysterious so far. Gerd PS: Thanks, Darrel!

Actually the Soviet Chinese Friendship Medals is (although the "ugly" type) much nicer, than expected

Hello gentlemen, i have posted some pics of this group on another thread already, but i didn?t want to flood that thread with too much irrelevant pictures and there is much more in this group than shown over there. Ok, here again the awards:
-
Thank you, Rick. I like it too very much. The Medals were proudly worn and show a lot of patina. It talks to you.... I guess, there were a lot of variations for this document. Let?s hunt for different ones Gerd PS: Will post the other thread tonight or tomorrow latest.
