Yugoslavia New member collection

[walter483]

I registered on this forum today - on Soviet's advice. I am collector of Yugoslav (former Yugoslavia) militaria: orders, medals, decorations, Josip Broz Tito,.... for about 5 years now. Here are some details from my colection. Enjoy

Nice - have you anything there that would look good on my Yugo army parade & field uniforms & greatcoat (I'm missing the collar tabs on the greatcoat).

Do any of your medals & awards have paperwork with them - award certificates, photos of recipient etc, or are they attributable to an individual?eirHav

[walter483]

Sorry, no certificates to my orders and medals. I think that any of theese orders would good on uniforms. What kind of uniforms do you have? I am looking for quite some time for general' dress uniform.

Welcome aboard. If you look around, I think you'll find focused threads on most of the lovely items in your impressive collection.

Nice to see you here Walter and nice collection by the way!

Are any of your medals cased?

[walter483]

I have cases for :

- order for military merit with grand star - I. clas

- order for military merit with golden swords - II. clas

- order for military merit with silver swords - III. clas

- order for labor with golden wreath - II. clas

- order of brotherhood and unity with silver wreath (case a little damaged)

- order of Jugoslav army with gold star - II. clas

- medal for military merit (case not in very good condition)

- order for merit to the people with silver rays

Unfortunately I dont have any certificates to go with my orders&medals. Had a Order of Yugoslav flag with sash (I. clas) complete with box, ribbon and miniature, but had to sell it, due to financial problems. But I kept the ribbon and miniature.

I mean modern Yugo ones, I think I have 2 or 3 spare camo uniforms & the like - I kept the other camo suits as although some of them are the same pattern camo, if you look closer you find that some have button fastenings, some velcro or press studs, so I kept those sort of minor variations.
