Owain, thank you very much for the information!

Any help with identifying this box would be much appreciated

Any ideas on what this case could be for?

Diameter is 10 cm.

Couple of gems :

Of course, I did register. Yes that is the address I have sent email on, but I will try it again.

Their website really needs a makeover :cheeky:

Any idea how to order the printed catalog?

"order catalog form" on their web site(very poorly made BTW) doesn't work, and they don't answer to emails.

Very odd and unprofessional of them...

Great information's! Thanks Waldemar!

Yes, I must agree it is very enjoyable to see such high end orders on auction.

Seems like its going to be a very interesting auction. Any predictions on when the catalog will be available?

Hey guys, please have a look :

On the normal medal & the table variant.

Hello Gents,

Yes, indeed those strange markings are stylized initials of engraver(Teodor Krivak). Found this information in a literature(Boris Prister, "Odlikovanja socijalisticke Jugoslavije") about Yugoslavian orders and medals.

BTW...bolgarin could you please show some more pictures of that table medal? Also would like to know its dimensions? Thank you!

I noticed that "mark" on every burma medal, although didn't figure out what it is...I guess its a "mistake" in minting.

Let me know(PM) what are you exactly looking for...maybe I can "dig" something out ;)

Hello Chris,

Yes, that is a membership card for "Union of Yugoslavian Communists" , very common here, but still a nice find :cheers:

Here is one from me

...hope you like it.

I was wondering where were you ... now that's a nice grouping! You never stop to amaze us Waldemar :speechless1:

:unsure:

Russian type of ONH is litle heavyer than 39,1g... after my study and all collected information is weight between 42 and 44 g.

I seen some even weigh more than 45 g(45.5 to be exact) , so there are obviously deviations in the weight.

BTW...Sasha you got yourself a nice mint one :love: :love:

Good expertize, I must notice that "gilded bronze" model isn't very well accepted among collectors... probably the reason is lack of information and proves .

BTW...Welcome to the forum :cheers:

Hi All,

sorry to bringing up this old topic, but this ONH is pure gold russian type... and I have no doubt about my opinion.

Regards

Sasha

You are absolutely right .

Very nice and interesting piece, congratulations!

You are right Luka, it is a kind of modern art.

;)

I don't know for sure...anyway its very crappy

...as a matter of fact I wouldn't even classify this one as a fake...rather a fantasy piece...

Red enamel!?

...someone is trying to higher the price on this very common and cheap medal :D

Is my star realy rarity?

Not really...sorry
