If you just started with Yugoslavian orders, you might not want to stop right now!

Thanks Christian! I do love it. And it's all thanks to Vic and his skill in the negotiating department.

Oh I know! Just a case of finding the right goodies at the right prices. So many of the Orders are up there already and beyond me right now. But I'm definitely hoping to get more before all is said and done.

Hi Vic,

Hey, wouldn't that be great... pop a couple of Orders or medals in a room together... with some champaign... candlelight... leave for a few hours. Come back and however many months later you've got a bunch of new Orders running around and filling your collection. Perhaps we could work on cloning... might be quicker!

Seriously though... thank you my friend! Were it not for you I'd not have any Yugoslavian pieces and probably would not have decided to get into it until it was far too late.

I literally could not have done it without you!

Dan,

You have some very nice items there. How large is that badge, in diameter(Order of Labor, 3rd class)?

Hi Paul,

Okay, the circular part is right about what our old U.S. silver dollars were. Then each of the "star points?" coming off of that are 1/8th of an inch long at it's longest part.

So it's a pretty good size. It compares very nicely with a Soviet OGPW.
