    Our "NIBs"

    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.

    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.

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

    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):

    Ed,

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