Soviet Soviet & Eastern Block Quiz
Christophe replied to Christophe's topic in Russia: Soviet: Other Militaria
I have never seen myself such a medal. The only clue I have about its market value (but nothing scientific here) is that Herfurt in 2004, in his book, gave it the same value (plus 10%) than the one I posted earlier (the "People's Teacher of the USSR"). This could give a market value around $800-850 for the Krupskaya-Medal... But, again, here nothing exact. Pure supposition... Ch. -
