It was made from bronze,dimensions 36x48mm.The wreath constitutes this medal with a sword and a siiver lion down.In the reverse is the inscription in the Czech language Czechoslovak Army Abroad. There 3 versions of the medal A, London issue .This medal in the picture is with small bronze labels,which show the places of the battles of Czech and Slovak soldiers:.F-France,VB-Geat Britain.Notice the differences later. B,Prague issue 1945.The medals have labels-SSSR-the USSR,Střední Východ-Middle East,and again France,Great Britain and abbreviation SV-Middle East. C,Prague issue 1945-1947.There are some differences,e.g.the lion is screwed with the letter Z-Zineger Firm,and the letters are in the depth. I am sorry but I do not have the certificate dimesions 21x30cm.I have only the Affirmance 10x20cm to Ján Prna and the Permit 7x11cm for Ján Hanulík.Also I would like to add the photo of all my medals in the etuis. The certificate with the medal.Photo is from internet,that helps me sometimes and saves me from taking the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The statutes from years 1947-1949 were renewed to award also the military groups.The President or the Minister of National Defence honoured with the order. The order had 3 grades:The Golden Star The Silver Medal The Bronze Medal First I will add only the common photo of all grades.To be continued... My good Ukrainian friend allowed me to put the Order for Liberty of 1st Grade bestowed on Carpatian Ukrainian Corporal in Reserve Jan Ivan Kočerhan.The order was bestowed in memoriam.It is not easy to find the certificate of this order to the collection.Two unusual things say about its rarity-the order was bestowed on the foreigner a with so low rank.It says about a heroic act.

Hi nick, a friend of mine found a special Czechoslovak partisan badge, which has three hallmarks on the screw. However, the badge itself doesn't have any hallmarks. I will share photos of this badge this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear nick Recently, my friend acquired a Czechoslovakia partisan badge . Unlike other partisan badges, which are constructed of silvered bronze, this one has three hallmarks on the screw("900", "KK", triangle), and the material of the badge seems to be silver, although the badge itself doesn't have a hallmark. I'm interested in your perspective. Thank you very much for your assistance. Warm regards, Yang Chuyu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
