      Hi Chuck, I'm sure you are correct on the meaning, MINI. I have seen the term used alot on ebay, and usually by russian/eastblock sellers. I just wanted to be sure..at first I had thought it was a maker. So if you have more Frachnik's please post them. I like the reduced awards..sometimes they have better detail that standard sized pieces. Thanks George

So I bit the bullet and asked.. I guess thats the only way..since we are at it What is a FRACHNIK..I assume a MINI badge/award.? Thanks George

      Hi Chuck, I found most of the books I have at: http://collectrussia.com/ They are a bit $$$ I have to get books in english and they always are twice what Russian versions go for Most run in the $200.00 or so You can also get some Historical books from Gauntlet Publications with english Trans if you need.. I'll get titles for you of what I think are the best for the money.. George

      Hi Chris, The word jeton, jetton is a term used to describe a small hanging decoration.. I think the term originates in france. Russian jetons were usually worn hanging from a button hole on the uniforn and as a watch fob for civil wear. I have some photos I'll post when I find them. From my understanding jetons originated before the issue of badges for military schools and acadmeys George
