Stuka f Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I got them from a local house clearing. It is quiet unusual to find imperial Russia militaria over here.... I managed to ID them all. Quiet a job when it is not your field of knowledge.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Gaumann Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Nice. Not an expert on George Crosses but I think this is a good, private purchase GK3. Possibly produced by Dmitry Kuchkin factory. The militia cross has a Soviet screwplate on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuka f Posted December 21, 2019 Author Share Posted December 21, 2019 Thanks a lot, again! Would never guessed about the screwplate. Could I ask you what the star (looks +/- like a prussian guard star...)might be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Gaumann Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Didn't have any luck finding that in my very limited Russia awards library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuka f Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Ok thanks for your time. I'll ad a pic of the reverse asap. Not very elaborated, probably not of a great importance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuka f Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Here is how it looks from the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Draconis Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Hello gents This badge, similar to St Andrew star is probably the badge of officers of the Guard Cavalry, IMHO ? And Eric is right about GK3 it is made by Dmitri Kuchkina, it should have a stamp of DK and a stamp of 84 for silver! As I have said, a great find?

Stuka f Posted December 24, 2019 Author Share Posted December 24, 2019 Hello, thanks for your opinion; much appreciated. About the stamp, I couldn't find any so far, but knowing what to look for I'll check again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
