First, an early example. None of these have dates that have been found, so far, but this is from sometime in the 1940s. -
In socialist Mongolia, as in other similar States, certain stores were reserved for well-places individuals, offering stocks of unusual quality and quantity. Entry to these required special identification cards. Here are a few.

And two more (not a pair): 1- George V Rai Bahadur - "Babu Tarit Bhushan Ray, 1st Jany 1927" - an unusual direct appointment to a "bahadur", he was Secretary, Mahajan Sabha, Calcutta, Bengal - the badge aculally, and unusally, retains most of the gilding (though it looks washed-out in the scan). 2- George V Sardar Sahib - "S Fateh Singh" - an unusual and uncommon undated Sardar Sahib, only awarded for about a year - so far, Fateh Singhji eludes tracing, but many of these early awards represnt earlier awards of Hindu titles, converted to Sikh titles when the Punjab Government raised a stink and a half. Research looms

Early (pre-1858) awards for India
Ed_Haynes replied to Ed_Haynes's topic in Great Britain: Orders, Gallantry, Campaign Medals
As I had not had a specimen, I had been unable to show the medal for the capture of Rodriguez, the Isle of Bourbon (Mauritius), and the Isle of France (Reunion) between July 1809 and December 1810. Not only an original striking, but nicely and lovingly worn. -

Not really an order of a medal, but I badge, I may as well add it here rather that start a new thread. What I believe to be a badge for a veteran of the anti-Fascist struggle. How it got to Ulanbaatar would be an interesting part of the story to know.
