Guest Rick Research Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 This is a GREAT design.Do Chinese reference books tell how many of these were awarded?
ilja559 Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Article in " The Petersburg collector " about this mark.
Guest Rick Research Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 34,000 of them? very small to read!
Guest Rick Research Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 Ah, PERFECT! So the island is 34,000 square kilometers! That looks like a great collector magazine!
Ed_Haynes Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Anything else of value there Rick? For most of us, the article may as well be in Chinese. That would be equally useful.
Guest Rick Research Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 The article gives measurements, that it was units of the 4th Army of the PLA, and tranlates the inscriptions--Obverse: To Military Liberators of the Island of HainanReverse: From the Main Military-Political Committee of the South China Military DistrictI find all these "local" awards fascinating. This particular one is a very nice design, too.
