Wonderful Bob, thank you very much.

And a close up of the last one.

Jan

Dusted of some of my documents.

Here's one for Partisan n° 410

Here is a closer shot of the page with the name.

Hope this is more readable.

Thank you so much Tsend for your help.

Jan

Thanks for your help!

I'll post close-ups tonight

Best regards,

Jan

Unfortunately, I can't decipher the names.

I could provide close-ups of the names if anyone around here is knowledgable in handwritten Uighur.

Thanks anyway for the offer.

One more:

Dusted of some of my documents.

Here's one for Partisan n° 410

Wow, great to see so much information coming out.

It stimulated me to dust of some of my docs.

Here's a document that is supposed to be for a type 3 best herder badge.

Issued in 1958. Don't know exactly how this fits in with the last conference in 1955?

Hi Peter,

This does not look Mongolian to me.

Sorry I can't be of more help.

best regards,

Jan

Wonderful Bob, keep up the good work!

Jan

Sorry, my mistake the seller is fafnir_57 (with an underscore in the name)

I just checked it still shows.

All the best,

jan

I could only find these and they are not those I made mention of;

Check out the closed sales of seller fafnir57 on ebay.be

Good evening,

Jan

Sad to hear

I dont understand why people do this, just to lazy to find a collector who wants to keep this group together and would rather ruin history for a couple euros

Even though I share your frustration that this group was split, I do not know of any collector who would have paid 5k for this group.

Even more so, since the historic value of this modern group is very limited. The only historic background resides in diplomatic goodwill exchange.

Best regards,

Jan

The seller "harvested" about 5000€ on this sale.

Best regards,

Jan

Unfortunately, the group was not kept together and was sold "in pieces" on ebay Belgium, last week. =o((((

Jan

Congratulations on this beautiful badge!

Best regards,

Jan

Always a pleasure to see such low numbers!

Thank you for showing and congrats on the acquisition!

Best regards,

jan

Congratulations with this nice documented group of what might well be a Khalkhin Gol action award.

Best regards,

Jan
