Luka

Could anyone help me with identifying this: THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

Nobody remake them... they are in the way they were found...as you said left overs from IKOM.

What do you think about these? (left overs from the production, prototypes or something else...maybe they were discharged when the 6 torch version took place?)

Here is my medal, no box but still a nice piece(sorry for bad pictures):

Award document says: "As reward for 25 years of work, confirmation for merit in defending socialistic revolution ideas, protection of constitution, social estate and safety of citizens of S.F.R.J."

:speechless1:

:wacky:

Well it looks like today is my lucky day...see what the mailman just brought me: Matching numbers on order & document... one more interesting thing is...on behind of the paper there is a notice about purchasing a miniature order in 1987.

Thanks all for kind words @Ed: No documents or photos :-( , owners often don't like to sell documents or anything that has their name on it... I am sure you understand. P.S. I was "inspecting" "Partizan Spomenica" and noticed there is a "BK" marking

Here is a nice grouping (from Panjevic S. -Captain I. class-) that I obtained yesterday morning...nice to fill in the gaps in my collection . Notice that order of republic is model from gold plated silver

Here is one interesting pin that I found by accident in a lot of various pins. Commemorative pin of some kind? Anyone seen it before?

Well that is one strange looking order , I would never think that is yugoslavian order P.S. Please post pictures of box(inside & outside), thx.

Very very very nice Anatoly!

Wauuuu that is very nice order!

Waldemar is that your order ?

We are talking about markings "BK".

No kidding? Yes Sasa, I know that they were making orders before WWII and during Nezavisna Drzava Hrvatska. You say Vojna Kontrola does not exist? Then what are the markings BK on the sub machine guns made in so called Yugoslavia during 1956 and later? I don't understand why the same markings would be used on guns and orders???? Please explain.

Thanks Christian for kind words. 1. I don't have his military biography, but sure gonna try to make an interview with his son, and obtain some info... 2. All indicates that he was on the Adriatic Sea. 3. Hope to find out soon.

It doesn't make sense that "Braca Knaus" were making orders and medals for communists, because they where main mint in Nezavisna Drzava Hrvatska/ Independent State of Croatia, and their political opinions were not the same... I personally think that those are not "Braca Knaus" markings. The best explanation is that it stands for "Vojna Kontrola"... ...you can see it on various items...not only "partizanska spomenica"(You can see that kind of markings on yugoslavian sub-machine gun M 56...? So what? It would mean that Braca Knaus where making gun parts in 1956? ).

Maybe BK stands for "Vojna kontrola / military control" (in chirilic alphabet)?

Just bought:

That is small medal for memory on I. conference(meeting) of jugoslavian peoples freedom front(jugoslavenske narodno oslobodilacke fronte Hrvatske). Unfortunately they where misplaced, the son of former owner promised me that he will try to find them. Its interesting that the best orders(for me) are missing- Order for military merit 1 class and Order of Republic with gold wreath. Same thing as with the rest of the orders.

We will be glad to see some pics. P.S. Welcome to GMIC Jakov
