Soviet An Unusual Award Card
NavyFCO replied to NavyFCO's topic in Russia: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
By the way, is the photo of the citation hard to read (distorted) or is it just my monitor? The file I uploaded looks okay, but the one on the thread doesn't.... If it's hard to read I can post a better one. Dave -

Soviet An Unusual Award Card
NavyFCO replied to NavyFCO's topic in Russia: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Yes! I have found a contact that can get me the award cards via photo instead of photo copy. He can do it for awards that have the name of the recipient, and the turnaround time is about one week. Gotta love competition in the ranks of researchers...... Dave -
Just got this award card in today for an unnumbered For Military Merit medal. Any stabs at what he might have gotten the award for??? Dave

Soviet Medal of Ushakov
NavyFCO replied to gor's topic in Russia: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
I'll be darned! I never noticed it when I owned the group, which I sold about 4-5 years ago. Guess you learn something new every day! Thanks for the education! Dave -

Soviet Order of the Patriotic War, 2nd cl., Type 1
NavyFCO replied to gor's topic in Russia: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
Doc- Thanks for the compliments. I was blessed to have had some really beautiful groups through my hands since starting to collect Soviet awards back in 1992. I appreciate the interest in these older ones that I used to own as it's kind of fun going back through my hard drive and taking a walk "down memory lane" so to speak. When this group came to me, I paid $900 for it, and then with research I probably invested around another $125 into it. When I sold it for $1080 I was dissapointed, but still didn't lose anything. Some "rough" addition now would show this group be be around $2600 or so (though I'm normally off in my pricing!) Dave -

Order book. The photo has him almost looking young... A few years of War and then you can see the sunken eyes, the receeding hairline, etc., that were evident in the photo with the Big Three. -
