Mongolia ORDER OF THE RED COMBAT BANNER
fjcp replied to Vatjan's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
Too bad he didn't accept.... Keep making him offers in $5 increments!!! Another thing that worries me...."Yu Ren Duo " Doesn't sound like any Mongolian name I've heard of.... And I've seen a lot of them, granted that doesn't mean it's not possible but I've got my doubts. Sounds Korean more than anything... Cheers JC -

Mongolia ORDER OF THE RED COMBAT BANNER
fjcp replied to Vatjan's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
Please pardon my French!! What a steaming pile of horse ^#$^%!!! He's been trying to sell those orders for years and we know that the serial numbers of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th awards all fall OUTSIDE of the awarded range.... The seller is getting creative!! JC ps. sorry, done ranting! -
I think it is, Bob... JC

Mongolia Order of the Red Banner of Industrialization MPR
fjcp replied to Vatjan's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
Bob, thanks for posting this!!! That looks like an amazing specimen and the documents are very very exciting!!! However.......... I don't see the serial number on either one of the two documents and I'm guessing it should be on there somewhere..... I just had a quick look I'lll have a better look tomorrow... Cheers JC -
Mongolia New auction at HDRauch in Vienna
fjcp replied to wlodzimierz's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
I'm not an expert on Chinese ODM but item D 6764 makes me think something isn't quite right.. I didn't mean to sound as negative as I may have in my first post, but those three medals don't look right to me... There must be somebody here who can shed more light on them. If I am wrong I apologize in advance... Cheers JC -

Thanks for posting this link. Some very nice pieces although some of the Chinese stuff is "interesting". Too much of this going around I'm afraid! Cheers JC -
Mongolia Attributed/Documented Mongolian Groups
fjcp replied to Ed_Haynes's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
Congrats Bob, I?m Glad that this group went to a good home.... I know that you were dissapointed after the last group got away. The catagory of the merit medal is for ?industry? ( I think), but I can?t check right now since my books are 3000km from here. I?ll get back to you in a week or so! cheers JC. -
Hi Rich, Thanks for your insight!! I must confess I too am a little entranced with the whole concept of Manchukuo. Not sure why, but we like what we like!!! I must say I am rather happy to hear that these are genuine, the colourful enamels don't hurt either. I don't think I'll be bidding on this one since I've been a bad boy these last few months but the next time I'll be very tempted... Cheers JC

I was browsing at ebay as I sometimes do, and I came across this Manchu medal. I've seen it a few times now, the first time I saw this medal was about year or so ago and then it sold for well over $1000.... The last two have been coming down in price, and the last one was 150-250 IIRC. So here is the question, is this the real deal, or not? Cheers. JC Here is the item (140312468394) manchu medal ps. I just remembered that all of the examples were in perfect condition.. I find this remarkable since the entire front is enameled and it's 75 years old

Mongolia Mongolian? What medals is this for?
fjcp replied to Gordon Craig's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
All the cover says is.... B.N.M.A.U (mongolian peoples rep. etc.) order medal certificate.. So as Ed said it could be for almost anything. Polar star, labour order, labour medals etc. There is just no way to tell from the cover. Cheers JC -
Since I started this thread I'll comment! I wasn't suggesting that you were scamming anybody. You listed the item and people bid.....fair is fair, it was just unusually high for the item in question. I too have bought from you and I couldn't be happier and my feedback was always very positive! E$cam is just a term that's been "lovingly" used for ebay, and to some degree, for good reasons. I've been screwed out of at least $600-700 over the years and so have others here. As for the picture , I linked to your listing and just used the same picture that was in the listing. I didn't pass it off as something else and I think it's reasonable that we as collectors should be able to discuss the wares on offer, otherwise we are going to get some very cryptic posts here... "Did you see medal X on site Y for $xxx????" Without intending to sound rude, it just seems you to have misread the intention of this thread. I was merely expressing my disbelief at the bidders eagerness(I'm being polite) and nothing else. I assure you this was not an attack on you! Cheers JC

Just wondering.... I've seen marks on many many medals and sacred treasures etc. Have any of you ever seen a mark on a Golden kite? I've got several and I've seen/looked at dozens and I don't recall ever seeing one.... Any thoughts? JC

I've got a sacred treasure 6th I think, with a mintmark that looks exactly like a " t " I posted pictures on here somewhere...lemme look. Cheers JC

Mongolia Two Unknown Mongolian medals/badges
fjcp replied to Riley1965's topic in People's Republic Mongolia
Thanks Ed, That picture gave me a good chuckle!! What can I say, I was young and foolish!! I assure you, it was posted purely for a better understanding of this complex field of ours... It is rather funny to imagine that people as different as that young lady and choibalsan should both be of interest to us. They both have their strong points I guess!! Cheers JC :cheers: -

Fair enough ( once more), but since none of us actually speak Mongolian, I thought I would contribute as best I could.... I shall refrain in future from contributing to threads such as these, to save you the collective bother of having to post corrections. JC
