Mongolia Our "NIBs"

[Dolf]

This is fascinating, Dolf. Thanks for adding this.

There do seem to be three early holes in Battushig's presentation of the deputy badges (pp. 74-75):

State Great Assembly (1924-44)

State Lower Assembly (1944-51)

People's Great Assembly (1951-60)

Looks like this image may be the first of these, but this is only guesswork. Any idea on the reverse? Numbering?

Cross reference: the thread on deputy badges http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=5294

Ed,

The info I have is that this was the Upper Chamber of the Parliament.

Will try to get more info, including if a number on the reverse.

Multiple choice question: Is this a "NIB" or a "mule"?

a) This is a "NIB" a variety of The Outstanding Construction Worker (B #N05).

b) This is an unholy marriage of The Outstanding Construction Worker (B #N05) and something else (maybe X01/X02?).

Your answer??

Ed,

I definetely opt for answer B.

The Badge itself is a N 05, with a suspension of a X 01.

Notice that there are differences between the suspension of X 01 and X 02, X 01 being screwback and enameled, and X 02 being pinback with what seems to be paint. This last one is also bigger than the one on X 01.

Well, at least that's what I have on my own samples.

I think it's an Outstanding Construction

Jan,

Yeah, an "Outstanding Improvised Assembling"

Tentative identification as "Outstanding Ploughman", it surely has an "early" feel.

[Ed_Haynes]

A (another) variant of "The Outstanding Worker of People's Education" (B# R01-R08). How far should we go in assigning manufacturing variations and deviance in enamel color as "variants"? This one is better quality than most and an almost "jewlery-quality" pin.

[Ed_Haynes]

Something new. Something?

This one is very nice, although I have no idea what it is

Jan,

My guess is that it could be one of those Province Badges, in this case one for the Sukhbaatar Province.

Yet, unlike most of the tiny provincial badges, this one is a whopping 50 mm. No way to tell that from my earlier scan, I guess. I don't see that scale at the provincial level.

For comparison (against a ready-at-hand companion):

Provincial Something from Uvurkhangai (?v?rkhangai)

An early badge, with what I think of as the "curled spring" pin fitting.

Provincial: Something from Uvs

A very low quality provincial padge.

[Ed_Haynes]

Provincial Something from Selenge

Were it not of such low quality and too-heavily lacquered, it might be cute.

[Ed_Haynes]

Sixty Years of Something in Dornogobi Province

[Ed_Haynes]

Another Cute Camel from Umnugobi Province

But what??

Ed,

All I was able to find about your Badge is that it's most probably a Military School Badge.

[Ed_Haynes]

Four Academic NIBs

1- Post-1992, but what?

2- Also post-1992.

3- Also post 1992, possibly something to do with Mongolian State University?

4- White Lavai College? Possible variant of R 81?

Some sort of Medical Badge from Dornod Province

The 50th anniversary of something, but what? Another "old-feeling" badge.

[Ed_Haynes]

Maybe MSU?

I think both of these may have something to do with Mongolian State University, but what??

[Vatjan]
