Hello all, here's the new scans. This one came in a hard plastic case. Reverse is plain, so I did not scan it. The plane is there! Looks like a Mig-21

I told you. I am happy to hear the good news. :rolleyes:

.

...and some more distinction badges...

Great !!!

I think now its impossible to collect such collection.

Yes, I fully agree. It is almost impossible to get some of these badges, especially the Air Force ones. In that series there are some extremely rara and unique pieces.

Distinction badges in the Air Defence Artillery:

I had no idea there were so many types!

Yes, indeed, this subject is an inexhaustible well, I would say. This is just one basic type of these badges but if you take the whole spectrum of civilian "KIVÁLÓ" badges, all professions and activities, there are more than 1000 different ones. Let's go! Don't give up!

I think we are just seeing the outline of where the plane should be. But it should arrive in a week or so, so I will post better scans at that point. Thanks!

I would say no, there is a plane, but okay, I am waiting for your better picture. I cross my fingers... :rolleyes:

OK, so the medal is correct... just missing the plane. I guess from the fuzzy picture that must just be the outline of where the plane was! Thanks for the help.

Anybody have a plane? ;>)

May be I am mistaken, but I can see the plane. The plane is there, nothing is missing, or...?

Exhibition of "KIVÁLÓ DOLGOZÓ" badges. All badges and boxes are different...

"KIVÁLÓ" badges in motor/transportation troops:

... and some more badges from other branches ...

Here are some other ones from other branches ...

So this one is correct? Looks like it even has the plane still!

Yes, everything looks okay with this medal. It is a late ('80s) version of the medal.

In the picture you can see the 5th Grade of the Order of the Banner of the Hungarian People's Republic which was instituted in 1956. This was the lowest Grade of the Order, but the rarest one. There were just 19 awards made until its (and the 4th Grade's) termination in 1963. It is gold plated silver with all the necessary hallmarks on it. This is an extremely scarce piece.

.Just one more picture...

Aiiiii!!!!

That is what i want this year!! Bravo.

How much do these go for these days?

The price is a difficult question in this case, I would say. If you are lucky enough and an Order of this kind comes across, the price depends only on the seller's and the buyer's agreement. The case is an even more interesting thing. There is no such case in the National Museum or in the War Museum in Budapest, as far as I know. What shall I say or add?

...and here you can see the inner side of the case with the recess following the shape of the Order:

This is the case of the Order:

This is the first type of the Order of the Red Banner of Labour from 1953. There were 52 awards only.

Some other pictures will follow soon...
