JapanX Posted September 3, 2012 Author Share Posted September 3, 2012 Documents for the Khalkhyn Gol Badges are pretty dull in design and have no photos of cavaliers inside. Here comes the most interesting (and rare) first type of document for first variation of the badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaigunair Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 great post about a little studied war. A few years back I went to all the russian antique stores in my area hoping to find these exact badges. I would often see alot of 80's era pins in there as well as at the local swap meets, but never ran into these. Still, nice to see a post on them.

Pretty salty variation 1 of the Khalkhyn Gol currently at eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Original-Russian-Soviet-Mongolian-Halkingol-Badge-Medal-Early-Type-1940-Russia-/160876764846?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2575009eae Cheers, Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I did, I'd probably want to first get one of the soviet gold star awards made of pure gold (hero of the soviet republic?). A fellow collector friend, who has authored quite a number of books on jpn military subjects actually showed me a few of those russian medals. He had also returned one back to its owner. I think those are super $$$$ though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero of the Soviet Union. Could cost you somewhere between $10000 and $20000 ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
