I tell ya, the little wife can sure be understanding at XMas time when it comes to my collection... The 1st half of my XMas present was a Commander of the Legion of Honour, this is the second half.

I was a wewy wewy good boy!

I have never seen these new Russian medals before. I find the labor related medals to be very attractive. Is the Labor Valor medal numbered?

Neg, the only one high enough to deserve a serial number is the FSO's Decoration for Distinction in the Performance of Special Assignments

Neg, mine isn't numbered, it's bran new un issued. I doubt a single numbered one as yet to hit the market, the award is only 6 1/2 years old.

No she did not... :-(

Chris, not to rub it in... Well, maybe just a little...

I had forgotten to mention it also included the LSGC medals of the State Fire Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations... Sorry for this oversight...
