TacHel Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Good eye, very attractive designs. But to be perfectly honest with you, #2 is the one I'm most excited about in this group. VERY difficult to come by! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darrell Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hey Frank, are the Russians as anal about letting these modern pieces out of the country now as much as they are about the Soviet era medals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacHel Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hey Frank, are the Russians as anal about letting these modern pieces out of the country now as much as they are about the Soviet era medals? I am unaware of any change or tolerance of the law... But have had absolutely no problem whatsoever getting whatever I wanted out of there. And not by devious means either, no tin foiled boxes to foul up Xrays or stupid stunts like that. Bubble envelopes with customs declarations clearly indentifying the contents as military medals. I've purchased both modern and Soviet Era stuff for over 2 years now without the slightest problem. I'm told it isn't quite that easy when facing a customs agent there, but from auction sites, no prob at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
