Soviet Researched Medal for combat service
Ostfront replied to Ostfront's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Thanks Rick for all your help. A few medals were probably added to this group, but I got the group for a very low price so there's no harm done. About the stamps, I spent 3 hours making this display and putting the medals and docs into the frame, so I'm not very enthusiastic about dismanteling the frame How bad do you want to see the stamps? -

Soviet Researched Medal for combat service
Ostfront replied to Ostfront's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
I'm not really sure about this eather. It's written on the award card that he was in the red army from 43 untill november 45. So that would explain why there's no long service awards. But I'm not sure why there's a veteran's medal and some others. Some of these medals are undocumented so it is possible that they were just added to the group, for some sick reason. What is your opinion about this? -

Soviet Prices on lenin order
Ostfront replied to new world's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
I would say, that the end of soviet collecting in very near for me. I just can't keep up anymore, the prices are insane. There was arround 100% do 200% rise of prices of even common stuff in just one year. I do not even want to lose words about rare stuff. Common Red banners were 150$ just one year back, now they are 350$. Next year 700$ perhaps? Where and when will this stop? -

Ostfront replied to Bryan's topic in Southern European & Balkan States
The screwplate is hovewer not original to the medal. It should be the smaller type. It is very possible that the original owner changed them with the more popular larger soviet type. -

I think they are ultra rare. I haven't seen any for sale and I'm in the field for about 7 years. -

Soviet Combat service medal to a naval marine
Ostfront replied to Ostfront's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Thanks, this clears things up. A shame that the red star is missing. I'm sure he must have done something bold to get the red star in the hell around Novorossisk. -
Soviet Combat service medal to a naval marine
Ostfront replied to Ostfront's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Maybe he got the CSM because he was not directly in contact with the enemy? Can anyone explain how is it possible that he got the red star in the same time from a different unit?
