Ed_Haynes Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 (edited) China: The Committee for the Affairs of Mongolia and Tibet, until 1911Silver (silvered bronze?), 53.7 mm, enameled white on obverse. Battushig, p. 170, as 05.Additional information in on this:The three Chinese seal characters at the top of the medal (the white enameled side) read, literally, ?Tibetan Mongolian Bureau/Ministry?. Your current id is correct, as the official English name of the office may have been a ?committee? rather than a bureau/ministry. The two seal characters on either side of the three characters read ?Second Class?, signifying that this is a second class award. Thanks to Paul Kua!So . . . there's at least a first class badge "out there" . . . get to work! Edited August 30, 2006 by Ed_Haynes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
