Nice group Bob. "Боловсролын тэргүүний ажилтан" хүндэт тэмдэг = badge of honor "Leading Worker of Education"

Tom after the end of coronation the name of this group has been retained but it became just another para-military youth organization. See https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/立命館禁衛隊

In the absence of shoulder-belt or ribbon the easiest way to fix such badge to the unform will be sewing. Next to the easiest way will be making two holes in the uniform and fixed the badge by piece of wood that fits the loops.

Well, it`s not very rare. One of the few known variations. Another two variations (by reverse)

This marking has nothing to do with cockades. Кокарда/сockade https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Кокарда vs. Опознавательный знак Российских ВВС/Aircraft marking of russian airforce https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Опознавательный_знак_Российских_ВВС

At obverse 禁衛隊 - Imperial Guards [protecting the emperor] Corps 立命館 - Ritsumeikan [university] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ritsumeikan_University At reverse 中学校 - middle school Under the lower loop you will find the mint mark. About their activities https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/立命館禁衛隊 A short excerpt from

No, it is not. A brief history of RF cockades https://forma-odezhda.ru/encyclopedia/armiya-rossii-znaki-emblemy-kokardy-na-golovnye-ubory-vooruzhennyh-sil/ Order №300 from 22.06.2015 http://base.garant.ru/71231082/

Glad I could help you. By the way, the clouds in such cases very often bear the very same M mark at the ring and naturally cases for them were also manufactured in Japan. Regards, Nick

Both cases are 100% original to the badges. This type of script was in use until late 1930s. It is another unfortunate misconception (to date cases with such style of script as exclusevly Meiji/Taisho epoch cases) that was created alongside with rules for dating higher classes of kite by riverts, rising suns by veins, etc, etc, etc. Best, Nick The easiest way to prove this point will be looking at the order of auspecious clouds that was created in April of 1934. Early orders have the exact type of script at the cases. Later it will transform to this style

I'm very bloody good

You will find basic info about this cross here https://www.rusempire.ru/rossijskaya-imperiya/nagrady-rossijskoj-imperii/147-opolchenskij-krest.html

片寄實一郎 - Katayose Ichirō Superior private, infantry P.S. I bet the kanji at cases are gold P.P.S. Some of the orders could bear M mark.

Nice group from early days of China Incident. The same date for such combinations of awards quite usual (actually standart) story

Congratulations Bob. This case is very rare

This is 井 / i / Unidentified as per today.

Looks nice.

As fake as it neighbours.

Yes, St.Petersburg mint in the process of making St.Gerge crosses back in 1915.

Sounds like you have quite a garage there.

Yes, these are fakes. For example P.S. I am a rare visitor of this section.

Danny, what is the source of this info?

Paul, you gotta be kidding me

Хрущель Станислав — 64 пех. Казанский полк, ефрейтор. Пожалован Государем Императором через командированного в 1-ю армию Генерал-Адъютанта князя Белосельского-Белозерского за отличие в боях. Khrushel Stanislav - 64th Kazan infantry regiment, corporal. Awarded by the adjutant-general prince Beloselsky-Belozersky for the distinction in battles. Somewhere around 1915.

All 7th class badges without enamel at reverse that I saw with documents (in more or less reliable groups) were afterwar awards.
