    1. Thank you! They look great when you hold awards in your hands.
    2. Ed, how much did they ask for these in UB? More than $12K? William
    3. Extra rare award!!!! Type 1 Variation 1 Order for Civil Valour. Established in 1926. About 300 awards of Type 1 were bestowed (both V1 and V2).
    4. Here's one old Gramota from my collection. A certificate awarded to a shockworker in the 1934 Uzbek cotton harvest. Hard cover and neat art deco design w Stalin's portrait inspiring workers on to greater successes. William
    5. Years ago I had exactly the same copy, but with Soviet HSL red ribbon!
    6. Ed, Many thanks! Looks like he was great figure in Mongolian revolution; his life ended so early and in a tragic way The photo is actually a postcard. William
    7. Medal/ribbon combination on the first medal makes no sense. Yellow-blue are Ukrainian colors, while ROA on the medal is Russian phenomenon. More appropriate colors would be blue, white or red. William
    8. Here's nice early Russian Civil War period photo. I was told this is Mongolian General Magsarjav. He looks Mongolian to me, but wears RKKA uniform. Does anyone have any info on this person? William
    9. Now, when I look closer - suspension appears to be heavily patinated, while medal itself has no patina at all. Should there be such contrast?
    10. Josef, would it be too much to ask to get a scan of the page where these awards are listed? Many thanks, William
    11. Walter, very nice collection and good looking displays!
    12. I would start with major dealer web sites, then check serial numbers list here on GMIC.
    13. Any more opinions about Gold Soyombo medal? Does anyone else think it's a suspect? William
    14. This award is definitely was taken apart for gold. Such a shame!
    15. That's how pics came from the seller. I am not sure why would he send pics from two different medals. William
    16. This has to be one of the lowest SN for Gold Soyombo medal: #14!!! William
