eBay seller write-"I am a member of OMSA and OMRS".See the medals- http://cgi.ebay.com/CHINA-medal-decoration...1QQcmdZViewItem

2.His Majesty King Abdullah, the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces, during the graduation ceremony of the 18th group of the military wing of Mutah University. Mutah, June 8, 2005

Great image,thanks !!! Two photos from http://www.kingabdullah.jo 1.Coronation Day. Queen Rania receives the highest medal in Jordan, the `Al Hussein bin Ali` Decoration. Amman, June 9,1999.

My opinion, is better to buy one original order,than 20 Umalatova copies.

Books has bought on Chinese eBay. With translation of special problems will not be, as I work with Chinese people. And the colleague from the Russian-speaking forum, living in China, I think will help. As I shall receive books, I shall put scans here.

Sellers in eBay make Umalatova doks that it is better to sell fakes. Even for "Order of Victory". If you want to buy, but do not know about originality,ask the seller to send you big medals scans and expose on a forum for discussion. Copies are sold not only in eBay but also on many other auctions. On the other hand, the medal of the Border guard costs now in Russia 350 dollars - not silver and 800 dollar - silver. If you buy this medal in eBay for 80 dollars - is naive to think that it real. When I see the Soviet awards on sale,I send scans to colleagues from Russia and only after that I decide to buy whether or not.

It is the second. As I see,the image of medals together with reversers. I think, that this book will be useful. About еBay-simple to buy from the checked up sellers. By the way, the real chinese medals in chinese online-auctions cost not cheap. For example, for two medals of the soviet-chinese friendship (one with the document) ask 550 dollars.

Has bought two books under the Chinese awards (yet has not received) .Тhe first.
