fjcp Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 750 USD!!!170212030715 I know!!!!! This is NUTZ!!!!I bought a 2nd award for $730 not two or three months ago!!!!!!There must have been some drunk people bidding again!!!JC
Ed_Haynes Posted April 27, 2008 Posted April 27, 2008 Especially crazy price if numbered beyond the likely range of awarded pieces.
Bob Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Good luck with your Mongolian quest but I think that the C05 will be very very hard to find now.....I was lucky I got into this early but I haven't seen one in over a year, maybe longer.....I think there are only about 400 of these out there, but you never know you might get lucky...CheersJCUnfortunately have to second JC on this. I have one (unnumbered / undocumented) and haven't seen one for sale since I got it (over a year ago?) except for this past week when I spotted a documented (incl. photograph / choibalsan autograph) one for sale. Asking price >2.500 USD That's a lot for a small (but important) badge!Now the asking price MAY have been a bit excessive... but who's to say when there's no other on offer?My advice: grab one next time you spot one.

Choibalsan [young]?)Confirmation (un-retouched!) of the Arabic-numbered awards.You have made my MONTH (not day, not week)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Glad that I could make your Month Ed!!!!I too was very very happy when I finally got the thing... It took more than a bit of effort to get it and if you may remember, this picture was on ebay a while back. I tracked down the original purchaser who had the auction ended early and got it from him... And a nice profit for him too.....Worth it though!Choibalsan as we haven't seen him before.....JC
Dolf Posted March 18, 2009 Posted March 18, 2009 (edited) "Type 1.2 (as above, but with Cyrillic ?B? mintmark) - Low = 1332; High = 1955"Ed, could you please examplify this? Where is that Cyrillic "B" located? And is that a kind of "B" but as if seen in a mirror, usually seen together with a perfect circle, as for example the one shown on Post #48 on this thread?Asking because if that's the case I happen to (still) have S/N 2015, shown somewhere on another thread.Thanks,Dolf Edited March 18, 2009 by Dolf
