I would like to show 2 Valour Medals. 1.Al Valore Civile-citation:Severini Severino Stefanaconi Catanzaro 8 Jimbre 1905 2.Al Valore Militare Bosco Cappucio Marioni Ulisse 10 Novembre 1915 In my opinion Al Valore Militare can be interesting because of entereig Italy to WWI

My Queen Srbija is usual with the signature 1 type,but I am not able to read it.Zlvija?Z1912?

Each of Valor Italian Medal with citation deserves the respect of falerists and collectors.Especially,when it talks the story of WW II.My congrulations!

Igor,hi!If it does not matter,I will add both of my medals.Obilich also with the globe earing.

Mrs.Robertson,I am not sure but I expect 2 different orders.When we ask Wikipedia we have picture of orders with a portrait of Simon Bolivar and next one with a building.Maybe I am wrong,maybe I am right. https://www.google.sk/search?q=Orden+de+la+Democracia+Simón+Bolívar&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-ab&gfe_rd=cr&ei=61DuWKvWKrKE8QfyvL74Bg ...or there were 2 versions of Order of Democracy.first it was called the Order of Democracy and after some time it changed into Order of Democracy of Simon Bolivar. E.g. in Czechoslovakia were 3 versions of Order of Republic.They have a different design...,also In Romania,USSR were versions of many orders,...etc.

Medaile Jana Žižky z Trocnova Ribbon: Red with black edge stripes. Instituted: 21 October 1918 Awarded: For brave or meritorious acts during WW1.Only 23 were awarded.I do not know why the name of General M.R.štefánik is absent among them in all lists.They say-22 awarded persons. Weight with the ribbon of the 3rd grade-32,2gr.Width of the ribbon 2,9cm.Dimension of the medal 3,5cm.The medal is 100% original,taken from the family of the awarded person.The bad thing is,the medail is without a certificate.In the past times there was no fashion to collect awards with certificates.In the past times there was no period and reason to prove originality.Material?I did not cut my medal to find out from material the medal is made from.I read somewhere-it is copper layed with some silver.

There is not really too much information about this order through internet.Instituted-?Awarded-Royalty and Head of States.Number of awarded-?Grades-? 1.Etue -Dimension 30x40cm,brown leather 2.Chain.Probably guilted silver?Weight-250gr.badge wih the chain.Details of the chain.Reverse of the badge-plain. 3.Shoulder ribbon wih the badge.Star:dimesion-9cm,weight-150gr.Probably-bronze

7.Exemplary rifleman-one of most widespread and cheapest -2 rifles form a letter X 8.Exemplary chemist-blue water with waves 9.Exemplary repair man-gear wheel 10.Exemplary scout-sapper -a knife with a gun-machine form a letter X-popular among collectors

I am not an expert in marks of metal .My opinion is: the OIC is bronze and the OFJ I is silver.Am I right?Thanks for yuor promts.

Hoping to take a picture of each of them later.But despite of the fact the photo is interesting to see.

I would like to add the button miniature of Truppenkreuz.The radius of mini is 1,5cm X15cm.From brass or bronze.

An interesting text in the reverse of one medal.

I will add another,not the previous one will not be alone.

3.Right :Czechoslovak Army Abroad 4.Left:For Freedom of Czechoslovakia right:For Merit

Miniatures of Order of Slovak National Uprising-all grades 2.Order of Falcon,War Cross,Revolutionary Cross,Cross of Voluntarees,the Badge of Voluntarees,National Revolutionary Army-Brno,Medals of Terron and A.Jirásek Regiments

I have not seen the miniatures of some Czechoslovak awards,so I decided to put them. For Bravery and War Cross 1939.Producers are not known for me.Maybe, Zukov Praha?

Thanks,for your reply.I am glad the topic was interesting for you.Sportkomitee?I supposed Spartakiada.I think it can be an Honour Bagde for guessts or for sportsmen.Mikuláš

I will do it again.I visited the goldsmith at least 3 times and he made the examination on the stone using acid.But not пробу .So the accurate word is фуфло,is not it?

Thanks,the answers similar yours, I have already had.I do not exactly undderstand-reproduction?Fake?Copy in correct metal?What to do with it?To sell as gold to a goldsmith?The Orders book is on Malikov Nikolaj Ivanovich.
