Yep - corrected the error already:)
2.750 is quite a sum for a pinback... regardless of the rarity / beauty... and if Alexei is asking it, it must be a clear sign that prices are not just "inflated" by certain specific dealer(s) anymore.
Compare with 3.500 for a screwback... 750 is a lot to pay for a screw... then again, if/when research becomes available...

As usual, interesting data points become clear with more date/numbered awards. What struck me this time with new update is:
- what appears to be a "mass awarding" of all (?) Polar Stars in first several hundred serial numbers
- a surprising dramatic slow down in issuing of Medal of Labour in last 20 years or so

Why don't you contact Dmitry directly and ask him about next steps?
William
I have - no response.
I'll wait a bit longer I guess.

My sense is that he is being very VERY slow. Not overly surprised . . . .
well... slow also means slow in receiving $$$ so I'm not sure if that's what I would do

Based on the published auction prices I know that I've won a few items in this auction but have not received any communication on this yet from the auctioneer. Anybody else here with a "win" at this auction? Did you get any info already confirming auction result, requesting total payment, etc.?
Thanks

Another variation (early, given the low number on reverse) of previously shown pin
Also, a little badge "30 years communist authority 1945-1975"

No problem Eric - everything that can help to get the documented materials on Albanian awards complete is great. Hopefully we can stimulate more people to come out with some of the extremely rare items still not seen on photograph!
0 -
Ah yes, I see your point.
Although there are more simple ways to obtain those "common" awards anyway - e.g. eBay rather than wait for an auction.

Ed,
I believe this simply means that, at current price levels, Mongolian orders are overpriced.

Take a look at Alexei's site - all top end items sold / on hold.

"During the communist regime, there was only one journalist organization, the Mongolian Journalist Union. It was established in 1951 and had over 900 members.
The national renaissance brought by 1990?s democratic revolution paved the way for the emergence of new organizations and democratic institutions. The Mongolian Free Democratic Journalist Association (MFDJA) was established in 1991 and created as being the foundation of free and independent press in Mongolia .
Its main aims were:
- To establish a national free press;
- To advocate for journalist?s professional independence
- To protect and support working journalists (with freelance journalists as a priority);
- To secure editorial independence and abolish all forms of censorship
MFDJO declared for the first time in Mongolia that either direct or indirect
censorship is unacceptable, thus leading to free and independent journalism in Mongolia .
Since 1993, MFDJA?s initiative the World Press Freedom Day has being celebrated throughout the country. On this day, journalists express their unity and professional solidarity, share their views on press freedom and discuss the mass media situation in-Mongolia. World Press Freedom day is a time for all who believe in democracy and the rule of law to renew their commitment to supporting independent journalists and the crucial role they play in the development of civil society. The main message carried by organizations for press freedom is that it helps generate awareness among citizens that the free and pluralistic media is an inseparable part of human rights and democracy.
In 1920-2000, a project ?Free and Independent press in Mongolia ? was extended by the development assistance Agency of Denmark DANIDA, which established the Mongolian Press Institute and ?Free press? printing house.
After 11 years of separation, Mongolia ?s journalists united to form a new organization. On April 2, 2002 , the MJU and MFDJA merged to form the Confederation of Mongolian Journalists. Today Mongols cannot imagine their lives without the free press. The people of Mongolia have a broad variety of different and competing media. As described in the annual survey of Freedom House ( New York ), Mongolia moves towards diverse private print and broadcast news services. According to the International Journalists? Community, there are three categories of free press development: Free, Not Free, and Partly Free. Mongolia is listed in the category of Free."

can anybody integrate the 2 threads on same award?

Ed,
I believe this simply means that, at current price levels, Mongolian orders are overpriced.
Marc
My conclusion is a different one - the highest end Mongolian items got good (even somewhat high) prices... the 2 SBs and the 4.250 Order of Labor Glory. As with Soviet items, prices for these will continue to rise I expect. It's been the "lower end" stuff which didn't sell probably for a number of reasons:
- easier / quicker ways to get them than from this auction
- available copies of these awards more than sufficient to satisfy demand

My thoughts were more that lower numbered awards woud probably have lower chance of being for long service and therefore more "attractive" (regardless of the "value" of getting an SB for herding cattle vs. inventing a new whatever). Since screwbacks are lower numbered than pinbacks... that's what I was referring to.
750 USD "extra" for purely the screw in itself seems senseless to me
