Fredhh123 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 My great grandmother got these in hungary for working in factories and we just want to know what we have and how much they are worth. I don't think they are worth loads but it's worth a look. --Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claudius Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Hello Fred; They all appear to be non-military lapel pins. They are colorful and visually appealing. I don't know what their value is, but someone who collects Hungarian communist militaria may be interested in adding them to their overall collection.

Gordon Craig Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Fredhh123, These are all Communist era awards with the exception of a post Communist era lapel pin. The one with the Hungarian crest with the bent cross on the top. Sorry but I don't have the time to list what each award is but they are all common and inexpensive. For example, the SZTATHOVISTA (the first picture in your list of pictures) is awarded for exceeding the amount of work one was expected to do in a certain period of time. It came with a certificate. Here is a link to Collect Russia that has some Hungarian awards listed. It shows one of the awards you have pictured Excellent Worker (Kivalo Dolgozo) badge, Type 4, with original issue box and miniature badge. Late 1970s - 1980s. https://www.collectrussia.com/showcat.htm?cat=hungary Regards, Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
