      Wonderful trio, expensive but worth every penny, as rare as rocking horse manure. Paul

      Any explanation for this? Paul

      Artan, Is it the standard medal which has been subsequently silvered with the shield painted. I suspect Radmilo will be able to give you a definitive answer. Paul

      The jeton is acommemorative for the completion of the Memorial to Alexander II in 1898, there were also large-sized medals and a commemorative rouble issued for the same event. Paul

      The Colombians have the best award, The Canine Merit Decoration (Al Merito Canino), which is placed round my labradors neck on special ocassions. I presume the decoration was awarded to police dogs based on the number of felons or government opponents they bit where it really hurts. Paul

      Yes the Chinese did incredibly well, the type 2 1/3 star made £8,500, even managed to shift that late Cloud and Banner for £2,400. Paul

      It seems that you can't give Japanese medals away even at a half to a third of what they were making 35 years ago, even the auspicious clouds sold on the reserve. I reckon if I sold my collection of Raj Medals to Indians I could fill a warehouse with Japanese ODM on the proceeds. Paul

      I will have to execute the photographer for getting the star the wrong way round. Also lot of dirt cheap Japanese in the auction. Paul

      Even the most common ones would sell for several hundreds. Paul

      Purports to be of the Stalin Socialist Realism era but the quality is not, badges from that period are of superb quality, one only has to look at the Moscow Metro badge to see the craftsmanship. I am afraid I have to agree with Nick, it looks a bit of Gorky Park special. Paul

      I have heard rumours about Mihai's Order of Victory but some of them seem to have stepped into little green men territory. The pieces I was referring to are published and verifiable Paul
    20. paul wood
      Where was the Order of Victory sold? Paul
    21. paul wood
      Ms Lee does not know what she is talking about, were it to sell it would be the third most expensive medal 1) Washington's Order of Cincinnati $4 million, 2) Earl of Durham's Order of St Andrew £1.1 million. May be others I don't know of. Paul
