And theres more the the screw plates are different betwen veriations, nuted version is more dished than the nut less variation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Can you guys please enlight me about the difference(s) between these Medals posted above? The only difference I see between those posted by Paul and Darrell, and the ones from Eric is that little "thing" (screw-nut?) at the base of the screws. Is that the difference?Both mine are exactly like those from Paul or Darrell, btw.Thanks,Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice to see a closeup of each if this is true. Edited May 6, 2006 by Darrell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Haynes Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I think the basic distinctions are:1 - screwback1.1 - nut at base of screwpost1.2 - no nut at base of screwpost2 - pinbackIs this right? Mintmarks?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mintmarks??So according to this, the difference between those posted by Paul and Darrell is that they would be 1.1, and those posted by Eric 1.2 instead.Have to check the Mondvor site to confirm this and for possible differences on Mintmarks. If only it was not so slow to download and not only in Russian... Thanks guys,Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Mondvor only talks about the Moscow mint. No reference to the Leningrad one. And all mintmarks posted here seem to be the moscow one... Ch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

order_of_victory Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Heres a pic of the Leningradski screw nut, I have discovered a new variation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 But how can we be sure it is original to the medal ? What is the mintmark on the medal itself ?Ch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolf Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) Heres a pic of the Leningradski screw nut, I have discovered a new variation? OoV,For a decent view, can you please try to eliminate 99% of everything around the screwplate (crop it with Photoshop for example) in order to have a pic of the screwplate occupying most of the area of the final pic?Thanks,DolfHere is what I meant. But in my case as I copied your posted pic all I got is a screwnut of the same size of the one you posted, but if you do it yourself from the original photo maybe you might get a better result. Anyway this pic is unfortunatelly way too blurred to show it clearly Edited May 6, 2006 by Dolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
order_of_victory Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) The mint mark on the medal looks like an anchor? I cant make out the mint mark on 2nd Class with the Moscow markWell it came with the medal from a dealer on ebay based in Hong Kong it came a Military Vetran medal and I also got my crab from him, but he never showed the screw plates on his listings. But I have never seen the screw plate on any thing else, I have never even seen a Leningrad Screw Plate before today, there isnt even one listed in PMD (Real or Fake).I have croped and enlarged the pic for for youOrder of Victory Edited May 6, 2006 by order_of_victory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
