Mongolia Replacement/duplicate awards

[Ed_Haynes]

Among the things we don't quite understand about the MPR awards system is the award of duplicate/replacement awards. So far as I (or we?) know, there isn't the Soviet-style duplicate "Д" marking custom.

But a couple of recently-in award booklets speak to thsi process. Neither has a photograph.

There is some concern thet these order books may have been faked, to pair with "rogue" medals, but neither came with medals, so . . . ????

Could that be a replacement for a DOCUMENT that had been lost, rather than the medal itself?

The last one, absolutely, a document replacement/copy (I suspect the old one fell apart or no one could read the bichig anymore by 1986).

The first two are PROBABLY medal replacements shown in the original document.

I thought I made that clear, sorry.
