Serbia Medal For Yugoslavian Participants of October Revolution 1917

[wlodzimierz]

Gentlemen,

I showed you badge for Yugoslavian Participants of October Revolution 1917. I am still trying to get more information on that October Revolution badge.

The medal is known (that one struck in the Belgrade mint in 4 varieties - in Serbian, Croatian, Slovenian and Macedonian languages), but the badge is something curious.

Hier you can see two variants with cirilic and latin letters.

Regards, My greatgrandfather received the same medal on a ceremony which was even on TV and in the newspapers, I have got the paper and the box that goes with that medal,it was a big thing to receive that at the time, he also received several Russian military medals at the same time. Unfortunately I do not have pics right now, I just saw it, but when I have time I will take some pictures and post them here.

[Luka]

We will be glad to see some pics.

P.S. Welcome to GMIC Jakov

Thank you all for best wishes . I am sure that all of us have a lot to learn, because Jugoslav medals and Orders are not an easy thing to collect, because of the variations and numbers.

Great Anatoly

now we have all 4 medals given to Yugoslav participants of October Revolution 1917.

These are beautiful medals, all are rare but some of them are very rare.

A medal is directly connected to very important event in the history.

Thank you Anatoly.
