Drugo Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Yours is later issue, Filip.I didn't find any info about that, but in my opinion and experience, from what I saw different times in different places, when they changed the medals from 5 to 6 torches, they also changed the boxes (as you see on Soviet's case there's a 5 torches coat of arms stamped).If I'm wrong please correct me...
Christian Zulus Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Gentlemen,many thanks for sharing these pictures .I appreciate very much the design of the order/medal of labour: Flower, woman, man & open book in the background. It's still a very "modern" design, I think .Best regards Christian
Bryan Posted September 23, 2007 Author Posted September 23, 2007 It's quite interesting that the Ex-Yugoslavia got the Russian style 5 sided suspensions and the Austro-Hungarian triangle ribbon style. A lot of influence from those 2 super powers.

A lot of influence from those 2 super powers.Dear Bryan,do you think, that this A-H triangle ribbon is correct ?I assume, that the ribbon is somehow "home made" by a monarchistic-oriented comrade .Best regards Christian
Bryan Posted September 24, 2007 Author Posted September 24, 2007 Christian, I guess it is not correct for this kind of medal. What I find interesting is that all the jubilee medals and few others have this kind of ribbon. So it has nothing to do with monarchist-oriented comrade. I guess it's just the tradition mixed with the Russian tradition with the 5 sided suspensions. Maybe all medals that first came from Moscow during WWII were with 5 sided suspensions and then when the IKOM initiated their own medals and design, they switched to the triangle style ribbon.I don't know if there is a real explanation for that, but keep in mind that both ribbon style did coexist in the Ex-Yugoslavia.
Christian Zulus Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Dear Bryan,sorry ..... , I think, I had a complete black-out .Of course, YU-awards have ribbons in Russian style AND Austrian style .Best regards ChristianChristian, I guess it is not correct for this kind of medal.

Anatoly13 Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Gents!It's normal for this medal.Not "home made".I call this "variant on triangle ribbon".
Ed_Haynes Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Gents!It's normal for this medal.Not "home made".I call this "variant on triangle ribbon".Do they come from different periods of time or is it just a matter of individual taste?
Anatoly13 Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 I heard 2 versions:- It was characteristic for some republics of Yugoslavia- It was depending on other awards on same ribbons Ed, your version No 3 .
SasaYU Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 Anatoly,those ribbons are not correct.Labour medal and Medal for merit to the people have 5 sided ribbons.
Anatoly13 Posted September 25, 2007 Posted September 25, 2007 SasaYU!Why medals on triangle ribbons are available on the markets so offen?
Christian Zulus Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 Gentlemen,a theory:Might it be possible, that in Slovenia & Croatia the (Austrian) triangle ribbon had been more common and in Serbia the (Russian) five sided suspension had been more common ?Best regards ChristianBTW: Catholic vs. Orthodox Christianity .
SasaYU Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 SasaYU!Why medals on triangle ribbons are available on the markets so offen? Maybe because they can be faked easily.?

Bryan Posted October 15, 2007 Author Posted October 15, 2007 Does someone has one with Latin letters on reverse?
Bryan Posted October 15, 2007 Author Posted October 15, 2007 Or maybe I'm wrong. Does the Medal for People's Merit (Medalja Zasluga Za Narod ) has Latin and Cyrillic versions?See : http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=17913
