gor Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 C 01 -- Army PinWhile this incredibly rare first-of-all Mongolian badges has been shown above http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=10218&st=24this new specimen is in much better condition and has a (repaired?) screwback pin.My five cents ..
fjcp Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 WOW, just plain WOW!!!!!!And it has yellow enamel on the soyombo and not red.... I smell a variation....!!!CHeersJC
Ed_Haynes Posted February 12, 2008 Author Posted February 12, 2008 Very (!!!) interesting . . . . . . flatbacked (not mirror reverse) . . . . . . and numbered (???) . . . . . . much to ponder . . . .
gor Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 I think it is not numbered , may be it's year (1936) . And letters M.H.P.(Монгольская Народная Республика) - Popular Republica Mongolia.

Bob Posted March 19, 2011 Posted March 19, 2011 As the claim of "holy grail" was recently advanced on another thread, I'll not employ that vocabulary here. But I am tempted. Very tempted! <b>C 02 VAR -- Best Shooter</b> The NIB variant of the "Best Sword Hitter" badge (C 02). This is the first one seen, only a rumor unil now. And only two "Good Sword Hitters" are known (and both are in poor condition). Apparently a Mongol equivalent of the Soviet Voroshilov badges, but for swords and guns only -- all Mongols were expected to ride well! I had the "Good Shooter" version of this badge in my hands earlier today (along with a type 1 Hero, and some assorted KGB, Sukb Baatar, early Red Banner,etc awards). Indeed, there appear to be two variations: - Good Shooter - Good Sword Hitter The Good Sword hitter badge (in reasonable condition considering the age, some enamle cracked/missing but generally OK) was said to have been bought by the dealer in the country side from a local for USD 16 not so long ago!! Will have some other nice pics to share when back, finally got close to a type 2 hero award (i.e. the "normal" gold hero star) for instance. Cold in UB, but glad I'm finally here!
Tsend Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 The Badge of the "Best Sword hitter" of the Mongolian People's revolutionary army. The banner has the text "the poof of the world unite". Clearly resembles the Soviet Order of the Red Banner. This badge is made of copper and enamels. Unfortunately much of the enamel is gone but still retains some. Large is size, around 5 cm in height and 4.4 cm in width.
fjcp Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 (edited) Congrats on the badge and thanks for the info on the inscription... One of the elusive badges I've never managed to get. Enjoy JC Edited January 2, 2014 by fjcp
Tsend Posted January 2, 2014 Posted January 2, 2014 The Badge of the "Best Sword hitter" of the Mongolian People's revolutionary army. The banner has the text "the poor of the world unite". Clearly resembles the Soviet Order of the Red Banner. This badge is made of copper and enamels. Unfortunately much of the enamel is gone but still retains some. Large in size, around 5 cm in height and 4.4 cm in width. There is a variation of this badge discussed above in this tread. The badges have the same design except for the inscription at the 6 o'clock position. One variation reads "The best sword hitter" and another "the best shooter".
fjcp Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Should have posted this years ago, but better late than never. Don't have my notes on me so I'll have to wait with the name and date on this document although it's probably from between 1930 and 1932 due to the latin script at the bottom. Any info is obviously more than welcome. JC C 01 doc.
Bob Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Wow! That's probably something even more rare than the badge itself! Very interesting and wish I could read it!
Tsend Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 This is a booklet of the member of the Defense Auxiliary Society of the MPR. The bearer of the booklet, who regularly paid fees to the society, enjoyed some privileges. Most notably, for us, he received this badge.
fjcp Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Tsend, thank you very much for the info. Can you make out the date on the document and perhaps a name... Getting greedy with the favours I know... Thanks JC
Tsend Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 The name of the member is Yanjiv Badamjav. Aged 27. Date of the document: November 5, 1931.
fjcp Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Thank you so very much. I really appreciate you translating that for me/us. Now to find me a badge!! lol JC
Chingis Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Hi fjcp, I used to study this when I was a kid. I think I could translate it from old Mongolian writing (uigurjin) to new Mongolian (cyrillic) word by word. I could also translate it to English but it won't be as good as Tsend's. If you would like I will translate it to cyrillic. Chingis
fjcp Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Hi Chingis, Thank you very much for the generous offer of your time. I think I speak for all of us here that we would very much appreciate your efforts in translating this, myself in particular. JC
