serial number 123123 ORDER OF RED BANNER LABOR USSR

Hi
I was wondering if anyone could help with any info as to the history of this award and if possible who was the recipient,being an ORDER OF THE RED BANNER LABOR serial number engraved on reverse side is 123123. at an uneducated guess i am thinking it maybe around very late 1940's to early 1950's
i would very much appreciate it if someone out there could shed some light on this.
many thanks

For sale: 44 piece Luftwaffe trade badge collection

I am selling a nice lot of 44 Luftwaffe trade badges as seen in the photo. There are a few duplicates but a couple nice scarce ones too. The school badge is a nice variation I haven't seen before with two borders and the boat personnel badge is very nice too. The motor transport badge in the second row appears to be a hand embroidered piece but a bit of the surrounding material is gone.

I am not parting these out. I want to sell this as one grouping.

I am more than happy to send this out of the US but want to ensure the buyer doesn't pay out the backside on customs fees. I will ship it however you want whether it be priority mail or just 1st class. Insured or not. We can discuss that once the sale is pending.

Paypal only.

Need help! Commemorative Medal for Swedish Volunteers in Finland

Commemorative Medal for Swedish Volunteers in Finland

Does anyone have any more information on this medal: number issued, to whom, supporting documentation, etc. I’m not finding any info online and not too much help from my post to the Orders and Medals Society of America forums.

There is an image of the Commemorative Medal for Swedish Volunteers in the Finnish Winter War in the Orders and Medals Society of America database if you want to take a look. Here’s the link: http://www.omsa.org/photopost/data/6…es_suedois.jpg

Finally what would one expect to pay for this medal.

Thanks, dastier

Opinions please- SS M42 sd Helmet

Hello, I have been offered this helmet to buy. It looks OK to me from what I have learned here on the forum so far. I do not collect SS items or helmets really, but I have one relic SS belt buckle that I know is a real one, and two relic WH helmets with nice decals intact, that I know are real also. I was thinking of getting this helmet also, but only if authentic.

What do you other members think of it?

Is the hole from battle damage? or just a rust hole? It lucky the hole is on the side that does not show when displayed

If it's real, would about $200US shipped to me be a fair price for it?

Regards, Steve

Need help! Badge/medal Fur Schlesien and unknown badge

Hi everyone!

I need help with these two items. The eagle order was bought for 10 pounds from a pawnshop and the badge for 1 pound at an auction. So I have not paid that much.

But I need help in identifying them both. I suspect the badge could be a regimental badge but I´m not certain.

The eagle order is unknown territory for me. Is it real or fake? I´ve seen all kinds of these in different "variations".

I´ll appreciate all help I can get! :)

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I think these 2 are tickets, but does anyone have an idea of what they are where they were used?

Many thanks,
