Relatively clueless on Soviet awards but the Mongolia link is very interesting of course. More pics... have got some offline indications but anybody here on forum is welcome to comment.

Yes... the answer to the question above is.... 注音符號... ;-)

Great - thanks. That just leaves one mystery ribbon!

Look look look! on the san giorgio aste auction

a documented one! :jumping:

bumped up... anybody new joined the forum with lots of knowledge on Chinese awards? :unsure:

I have excellent scans of the booklet. Is there an EXPERT (so not just a "curious bystander") who would be willing to discretely have a look at these scans offline?

Thanks,

Bob

Hi there - 11 piece cloth ribbon bar - pretty international grouping (italian, albanian, romanian, etc.). What's the German one on here?

Thanks! :cheers:

Here's obverse

It's a small badge

Italian, but any more info?

It reads on front: Unione Nazionale Ufficiali in Congedo D'Italia

On reverse: Senesi Milano, Via Bassini, 52

Keeping my fingers crossed....

I'm getting in a piece that I would LOVE!!! to get research on....if it's even possible!, got the tracking number and it's on the way.....

Good

I have some things very nice coming as well... one is a documented group (and when I say documented... I really mean an incredible amount of documents!), the other is a documented (with photograph) type 1 sukh bataar.

The Mongolia forum is coming alive again!

I'm hopeful it'll turn out to be the real deal on the document. It's one of those difficult cases though where my guy is the "middle man".

Anybody know? For years this has been "on the horizon" but real progress is difficult to actually see :rolleyes:

Just had this offered to me. Still awaiting better scans of the reverse and - keeping fingers crossed - of the award document. Serial number is 14210.

The Mongolian connection is what interests me here. Some questions:

- are these researchable?

- does these appear to be real/fake?

- what would be the reasonable price without and with document?

Thanks

Anybody know a good site where I can look up the Italian ribbons?
