Imperial Russia 4th class St. George cross for other ranks
JapanX replied to David Gregory's topic in Russia: Imperial
This cross was made in Moscow by Dmitry Kuchkin (ДК) workshop somewhere between 1908 and 1917. -
This one is korean. Order of the Plum Blossoms.

Yep, you are right about type 99. Here you will find another piece with the very same mark. http://blogs.yahoo.co.jp/kougun1/54886799.html The owner described it as civilian (training) type. 今回の調達分である実物の38式歩兵銃型・伊澤式教練銃です。民間型ですが戦時中の実物につき重厚感があります。 機関部である尾筒には民間型である伊澤式という打刻が入っております。正規型の38式歩兵銃ではないので、菊の御紋はありません

南市 - South city 董家渡 - Dongjiadu [residential district] 求新 - Innovation

It looks like some part of the inscription is the same as case inscription. But I am not very good at reading handwriting. Sorry.
-
It reads 井澤式 - Isawa type So it was made by subcontractor Isawa Jyuko somewhere betweeen 1940 and 1945. Regards, Nick

Correct kites in correct cases Most likely this happened because of the catchlight.
-
This is how the correct case for this type of kite should look like.
-
Yep. Kite is from Showa epoch, but the case is from Meiji/Taisho time period.

By the way, it`s interesting how they tried to translate his name Fournon in japanese. In document we see 佛蘭西國人 (France / France people ) and his name in katakana フIルノソヲ Not very close I would expect something like フォアノン Cheers, Nick
-
The inscriptions reads 東京市 - Tokyo city Look like presentation box for some memento connected with all these visits in the early 20s. Regards, Nick P.S. Nice 3rd class pillars
-
Exactly! Same story with two lower classes of rising sun order. Unknown maker (as per today) that was active between November 1915 and December 1921. Nice pictures! Many thanks! Best, Nick
-
Exellent set Patout! If possible please post close-up`s of order (obverse and reverse). Regards, Nick

Persia - Order of the Lion and the Sun

North Korean badge. Reverse reads Tank driving qualification badge + space for number
-
Thanks! Interesting medal, Petro
-
Unfortunately both are doctored version of the normal medal and they are hanging from the wrong ribbon (replica ribbon for great east-asia war medal) This one is much more promising. The case is the wrong one (from the red cross medal). I`d like to see the reverse
-
Please show the reverses.
-
The ribbon itself has a chance to be an original (although from Showa epoch), but the rosette was added. Even white stripes look differently
-
Order is original. The ribbon is not original for this order - during Meiji epoch ribbon for 4th class didn`t have a rosette and had slightly different color
-
The 3rd class is Showa piece. This 4th class came from Meiji epoch. The ribbon is a modern replica. Original ribbon for 4th class from Meiji epoch should look like this one and original ribbon for 4th class from Showa should look like this
