Hello! Thank you for your answers! Of course always you can tell me more about.

When on shoulder board is initials like N(icholas) II does it always mean that he is the honorary commander of that unit?

Thank you!

What about the colours of the shoulder boards. In upper picture there are blue, red, orange and grey. Those indicate which branches of the army?

Hello!

Those who have better knowledge can you identify these shoulder boards?

In the middle picture,  second shoulder board from the right. I think in that should be printed the crown and the insignia of Nicholas II.

Is there good social media forum where is discussed about imperial russian shoulder boards?

Damn

Such a cross from 1939 is valued approximately 7000 Euros.

What is this then if not influencing the price?

Why this interesting thread seems to be dead now.......

Book by Petteri Leino Kunniamerkkikeräilijän opas ( Guide for order collectors) says that the price range for Cross of liberty 1st class with swords 1939 is 1500-1800 euros.

At the moment there is publicly for sale Cross of Liberty 1st class without swords 1941 which was awarded 22 times. It has minor enamel damages. It comes with original case of issue. Asking price for that is 2100 euros.

How much would you pay for a set (Breast Star + decoration)?

Hi, I wrote you message.

Hello Johan!

Yes, that one in prenikka I know. 

That is true that most of them went to the germans. But they come up surprisingly rarely in the auctions. Or at least in those what I have been following. But let's see what will come up))

Hi,

does anyone know if there are for sale order of the Lion of Finland or order of the White Rose of Finland with swords? Let me know if you know.

best regards

Janne

Thank you Janne!

As you probably already know, there is a VR3 PR 1939 for sale at prenikka.fi.
The cross is in extremely fine condition and has a price according to it. But still only 48 awarded so mint crosses are really rare.

If I hear or find any other for sale I will send you a PM.

 

Pictures of my VR3 PR 1918 is on its way. Hopefully I can take good pics next week.

Yes, i know that in prenikka.

Thanks for it.

Hi guys!

sorry for my late reply. I have been sick for the last weeks. 

Picture will come later in january. 

The cross is a libertycross 1918 with red cross. 3rd class. 

One of only 22 awarded crosses. You must be very careful with these crosses since fakes exists. 

Hello Johan! 

Hopefully getting better!

You had good catch!!!!  If you get information that someone sells that or or liberty cross 1939 3rd with red cross let me know, please!))

Get well!

Hello Johan!

So what kind of cross did you buy? Curious to see.....)
