Albert

Thank you. The reason I asked is that I might have a chance to buy one numbered 4XX.

Thanks again, Dolf! Will do Albert

D03a: A beautiful badge. Any idea on todays value? Thanks, Albert

And the reverse:

Thanks Dolf. Still, if this info surfaces, I'd be most interested in finding any info on the awardee. The reason is that I will be adding this O of SB to my collection. Actually, this will be the first Mongolian award in my collection. Best regards, Albert

Hello Gentlemen, Do we by any chance know who was awarded Nr. 540? Thanks and best regards, Albert

Noone has called the old man a lier, nor has the story been called a hoax. Only one general, and valid, point has been brought up in relation to ONE aspect of the story. Personaly, I would be interested in learning how awards were made to spies that were in hostile countries. Were they notiefied by radio, etc.? So rather than protesting something that's not there, an interested party should make note of the comments and perhaps address them to the old man. Perhaps he will remember more once his memory is stimulated with some additional details. After all, he's said to be over 90.

Hello gentlemen, No doubt award certificates would have been made out. They actualy constitute the award, and allow the pocession and wear. Usually, awards were sent to the families with the award doc and an accompanying letter. What makes me wonder: If "they" had rightly thought that the sending of the docs to the family would be compromizing, why would "they" send the, no doubt equally compromising, crosses then? Best regards, Albert

Andreas, no need for better pics. Yours is right as rain. Here is a close neighbor to your 12.937 Albert

Hello, This is not an original K&Q case.... sorry Best regards, Albert

Hi guys, My first post here The chances would be Zero. However, there are pieces that clearly show a modification that strongly suggests that the original eyelets were removed and the EK 2 ones added. Here is an old picture of one of the ?bergr??e I used to own that illustrates what I am referring to. So, I am a believer. Best regards, Albert
