Yeah! Very NICE!!!

Interesting badge!

:whistle:

Any idea, where it come from? I bet not from Central bank or Office of President...

I do not comment - a commercial secret.

What are the numbers?

№№ 1257, 1258, 1259

I have 3 medals.

Ok, just to summarize what we think we know on terminology and numbers:

Type 1 (broad numbers); Low = 159/High = 9116

Type 2 (narrow numbers); Low = 10327/High = 20008

Type 3 (for foreigners, on pentagonal suspension); Low = ??/High = ??

Corrections, please.

№ 34

According to Dr. Battushig's book, this was only awarded once- to Leonid Brezhnev! I would definitely have this authenticated if you are sure of it; I'm a bit skeptical. If you want the e-mail address of an expert on the subject, PM me.

According to the book of Battushig it has been made two identical medals. With the first medal have awarded L.I.Brezhnev in 1974.

It is the second medal. I am the good expert in the Mongolian awards. But with pleasure has consulted at your expert. Please send me its e-mail in PM.

New arrived in my collection on this week.

New in my collection!

I recieved this badge yesterday. What is that?

Main overview picture - a fellow with an interesting background

Hi Bob,

My friend offered me this complete set, but I have not had time to buy it... I have a badge from this complete set - "50 years to the youth truth".

I have in my collection.

AND MORE ...

And another one, a documented group of badges belonging to an Honorary Contruction worker (welder) Yondon Tovuu.

Alexei mentions his bio is published in the Mongolian Directory on Heroes of MPR, Labor Heroes and People's and Merited Title holders so will have to look that up later. Maybe somebody can help translate. The group includes:

- Outstanding Construction Worker of Mongolia Badge (NB mentions quite some detail: made of German silver, goldplating and enamels. Hungarian manufacture) which comes with a blue hard cover document hand signed by Minister of Construction of Mongolia Mr. Pleihan. Awarded in 1976

- Badge for 60th Anniversary of Mongolian Construction Sector. Made of brass and red enamel. Awarded in 1986. Comes with a paper back document with an original ink stamp of the Ministry of Construction.

- Badge for Leadership in Socialist Competition of the 5 Year Plan. Awarded to in 1974. Comes with a paper back document bearing an original ink stamp on the Ministry of Construction, signed by the Minister.

More ...

More documented groups coming... these require some checking up vs. Bat's book first though. These'll be BIG groups with LOT's of documents.

I have in my collection.

Front scan would also be nice:)

OK, front is very nice! But I can make scan only tomorrow morning.

Who knows what is it? :unsure:

My new acquisition. :rolleyes:

Fair enough (again), but place names -- like personal names -- should escape mechanical and literal translation. Would we really want to talk about the "Order of Ax Hero"?!

"NALAIKH" - This small city is in 30 km from Ulan Bator on the east. Earlier there there were Soviet armies.

I think that 2nd badge is devoted 40 years Ten years' school in Nalajhe.

"Nalaikh" means to be quiet,calm or at peace....

"Jil" means years....so 10 or 40 years or something... but I haven't found the badge yet.....

It's a NIB but I get the feeling it might have a buddhist relationship in some way... the at peace bit with the Book at the bottom...

Anyway it's a theory...

Cheers

JC

"NALAIKH" is small city.

Great! :jumping:
