    Here is my small contribution. I'm still beginning my Yugoslavian orders collection.

    My Partisan star 3rd class :

    Hi Soviet,

    I just picked one of these up at the MAX Show. This may be a relatively low level award; but there certainly is nothing low end about that enamel! Be careful if you really examine it closely, it can become hypnotizing - don?t you agree?

    Best wishes,

    What do the other two classes of this award look like? I bet these are pretty expensive!

    Best regards

    Here is the first class which I don't know the value and is extremely difficult to find.

    Here is the 2nd Class. This one is also not so easy to find and is sold around 150 to 175 EUR. I'm still looking for one of those. :(

    Hello Wild Card,

    Hope you got the one made by the Monetnyi Dvor in Moscow which is much nicer than the one made in Zagreb. The last one was made in yugoslavia after Tito broke with the Soviets. You can see the difference between both enamels.

    Left = Monetnyi Dvor

    Right = Zagreb mint

    Hi Soviet,

    Wow, what a difference! Yes, mine is a Soviet manufacture piece. If it is of any help, the SN# is 8276. thank you for sharing this information.

    Best wishes,

    Wild Card

    I can see the huge difference in the makers.

    Thank you for the photos, Soviet! I hate to trouble you yet can we get a look at the back of your badge?

    These are interesting awards!

    Best regards

    Paul
