Ed's Mongol Morass

[fjcp]

Ed, any chance of an update?????

All I can say is, your collection is just amazing!

Not sure if you do requests but I was hoping you might delight us with a side by side picture of your D01, D02, and D03.

You are no doubt the only person here, or anywhere for that matter to have all three.

Thanks in advance

Would love to give an update, JC. But as I am just about to head off to my summer travels (which will include some time in Ulanbaatar), I'm not sure I'll have the time.

And, YES, I do requests! Happily! But most of my guests life off-site and it takes some time to fetch them.

Luckily, what you ask for is already up at

http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=5058&st=51

and I'll repeat the closeup here.

Ed, everythin, i could say, would be an understatement, but though, absolutely fantastic State Security trio and an awesome collection alltogether

Some new (updated) images. All in one place.

Starting with single, uncased, undocumented items.

All that lovely shiny metal and enamel work has damaged what little eyesight I had left after my visit to the Central Army Museum in Moscow !

Yummy !

Fantastic collection! I do not collect Mongolian awards, but I do think they are very interesting. They have lots of colors that can catch your eye and their orders are really gorgeous and detailed.

Too bad I can't afford to collect everything.

You'll soon be entitled to one of those yourself, for "having raised your herd to 10000 pieces"

Nice to see them all together

Ah, yes . . . in the old days, maybe . . . not now. Just 9948 to go!

Some groups. I am sure about the first two groups (the top two rows), but not the third (the botton two rows).

More to come.

[Ed_Haynes]

Some low-quality images of some cased items. Some have been seen elsewhere here.

1- Order of the Red Banner of Military Valor "3" (#5)

2- A documented Order of the Polar Star (Type 3.1, 3 December 1955, #1217) - this is the document with, apparently, a "naighty" added-in photo - see http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=4238&st=30 and following posts.

[Ed_Haynes]

Some Honorary Medals of Combat and Honorary Medals of Labor.

1- Honorary Medal of Combat (Type 1.2, #3390)

2- Honorary Medal of Combat (Type 2.3, #21118)

3- Honorary Medal of Labor (Type 1.1.2, #5596)

4- Honorary Medal of Labor (Type 1.2.1, #19393)

[Ed_Haynes]

1- 80th Annniversary of the Revolution (B A56)

2- Champion of Socialist Competition (B X01, Type 1.2, #3761)

[Ed_Haynes]

And finally, for now, a documented item, with which I am very happy.

A documented Title of Merit (A8) set (type 2.1, 26 June 1981, #607). To Dorzh Bathuyag for excellent work in collective farms.
