Soviet Order of the Badge of Honor
Riley1965 replied to Ed_Haynes's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations

Dan, That's a very nice "crab". I have one in my collection, 3rd Class of course. I am going to attempt to research it. I'm not sure if it's even possible. Anyway, Congratulations on your Order of Service to the Motherland!! Doc -

Soviet Order of the Badge of Honor
Riley1965 replied to Ed_Haynes's topic in USSR: Soviet Orders, Medals & Decorations
MONDVOR, If you are referring to the two screwbacks posted by Ed Haynes, You are wrong. Ed, doesn't buy or post garbage. Since he bought them they are genuine. You just have to know the caliber of a collector that Ed is. Best, Doc -
