Top secret stuff!

Its weights one kilogram has diameter = 120 millimeters and thickness = 11 millimeters. Manufacturered by OOO "Art Faces" (Zlatoust, Chelyabinsk region). They say only 25 medallions will be minted

They called this medallion "The gatherer of the Russian Lands"

Another souvenir for Frank

Fake

Yes, but he has a speaking name! Normbradley (and not just norm, but 11th!!!) You can`t simply ingnore this

In original "Медалью награждаются военнослужащие и лица гражданского персонала Вооружённых Сил Российской Федерации за заслуги и отличия, проявленные при обеспечении безопасности мероприятий, связанных с защитой прав и жизни граждан Крыма, проведением референдума в Крыму 16 марта 2014 года, вхождением Крыма в состав Российской Федерации по результатам проведённого референдума. Медалью могут награждаться также другие граждане Российской Федерации и иностранные граждане за содействие в решении задач, возложенных на Вооружённые Силы Российской Федерации при обеспечении безопасности мероприятий в Крыму. Медаль (лента медали) носится на левой стороне груди и при наличии других медалей располагается после медали (ленты медали) «За трудовую доблесть»"

Correct prononcation will be "Се-ла-ви"

Yea, right! Like only one medal per event + additional commemorative medal every five years

I wonder why they didn`t create three different classes of this one

Quing orders are undoubtedly more rare ;)

I think there was only one main price driver of Imperial Russian orders in the last 15 years - wealthy russian collectors (pseudo patriotic nouveau riches). Same story with Imperial China "stuff". Again we have wealthy and super wealthy mainland chinese collectors. Often they don't even know much about this "stuff" and its "fair price", but have a lot of money and spare time ... That's why chinese vases went for more than 50 000 000 pounds

Both medals are unofficial (non-governmental) awards. Only first one issued by Ministry of Defense and second by public organization.

Both stars came from 1936+ period of time (but no later than 1945-1946) Most like pre war stars. Different colors of enamel is just random (but pleasant ) difference. Cheers, Nick

Looks like this "collection" is not that "nice", Jani. Fakes (post #2-3) + (at the very least) doctored orders (post #1, post #4) Cheers, Nick

Excellent score! Congrates Dave!

You are trying to take away very important source of pleasure (and posts) for so many of our "colleagues"

In turn Crimea and Sevastopol established their own medal "For Liberation Crimea and Sevastopol"
