Imperial Russia 1st class St. George medal for bravery for Englishman

[TacHel]

Those are bran new ribbons, you can easily tell by the colours' edges on the victory medal and 1914-15 star. Not that it would greatly affect the price but still... A very nice set! But IMHO, still a bit overpriced.

A very nice set!

42 days of imprisonment is one spicy detail, ain't it?

But IMHO, still a bit overpriced.

:lol:

I think someone has thought that the Blenheim angle makes it worth the earth. In the end it is a 4th class cross, nice thing but looks $2,000-3,000 max although we did have a 4th class George to an RAF man who took part in the Civil War Tsaritsyn Campaign which made nearly $10K mind you uncle Joe always gets th bucks in.

Another interesting set with 4th class St.George cross from Civil War days for Englishman.

Interesting that original asking price was $8000 and now it is down to $4000!!!

N-wave of world financial crises?

With practically the same price

Estimate $3,500 - $4,000

Starting Bid $3,000

What can I say?

Another blood-sucking auction house ... :whistle:

[paul wood]

Alas there are people around with bigger wallets than sense who allow the blood to be sucked from them.
