      A Soviet recipient of the 1st class.
    2. Ed_Haynes
      Slightly but a Soviet recipient of an Order of Military Merit. But an ADMIRAL???
    3. Ed_Haynes
      Reverse.
    4. Ed_Haynes
      And one more, he was hiding. Also soft focus.
    5. Ed_Haynes
      Another, softer focus alas:

      Reverse:

      Two images of the medal in wear:

      And a final one, early.
    9. Ed_Haynes
      Another, no name.
    10. Ed_Haynes
      Another; no name on reverse.
    11. Ed_Haynes
      Another.
    12. Ed_Haynes
      Some full cavaliers.

      Reverse? As usual. And as predicted. Knowing your fondness for backsides, errr back sides, I should have posted this already.

      30th Armed Forces???

      Just in, one of those tiny, thin, fragile plastic ribbon bars. I fear that if I blow on it it will dissolve away. Pretty straightforward, but what is the last one? Has something obvious fallen through my Swiss-cheese brain-holes? The stripes are greener than they look in the scan.

      A lot of collectors use QSA ribbon, though it differs slightly. I know the OMSA ribbon bank had some, I sent it to them.

      Thanks. Two more: 7- It is a very nice recommendation. 8- The US$ is worthless. This is priced in US$. Just ("just") some 410,000 roubles (or 1,004,177,022,450,000 Zimbabwe dollars).

      A complex question: 1- What it represents = three consecutive acts of extreme combat gallantry. 2- That it can be (and has been) researched. 3- Intrinsic value (gold). 4- That a lot of folks (especially in Russia) have the money for something like this.
    19. Ed_Haynes
      I hate to think. Add a zero to that price??
    20. Ed_Haynes
      And a single! Though it is researched. Oy!!
    21. Ed_Haynes
      It has become very hard to find in India. I doubt that any of the recipients are still in service and, therefore, military tailors no longer care.

      Actually, it would be very heard to search on that name, given the limitations of forum software. Look around, you will find much of comparative interest, I think! For a nice (at least I like it) Soviet-Mongolian crossover, see http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10742 To go the other direction, see http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=23322

      The Medal "We won" (to use the correct name) is in many places here. See, for example: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10216&st=01 Welcome to Mongolian awards.
    24. Ed_Haynes
      And. When you have to deal with strange foreign awards, you improvise. Look what the Soviets did to British and US awards!
    25. Ed_Haynes
      Not wanting to add more fuel to the flames in what is getting a bit "snarly", but three British groups follow. All images small and not great, but the groups aren't mine.
