*CLICK ON THUMBNAIL OR ITEM NAME TO VIEW FULL DESCRIPTION AND PHOTOS
Nakhimov Medal, Var. 3 (with small numerals in the serial number), #13017, circa
1970s-80s. One of the last Nakhimov Medals ever made. In near mint
condition, probably the best we've ever had.
Medal for Valor, Type 2 Var. 1, #2743047, circa mid- to late-1945. In very fine to
excellent condition, far better than vast majority of Valor Medals of WW2 period.
Medal for Valor, Type 2 Var. 3 (unnumbered Cold War version), late 1940s through
early 1990s. Unlike the Combat Service Medal, Valor Medal (aka Medal for Bravery)
was never issued simply for length of service. During 1980s, quite a few of them
were awarded for service in Afghanistan. In excellent condition and includes
original suspension in brass.
Medal for Combat Service, Type 1, Var. 1 (with engraved
serial
number, small suspension and "Mondvor" screw plate), #20763,
awarded in March 1942 to a Partisan Platoon
Commander.
In November - December 1941, when the Soviet partisan
movement
was still in its infancy, he led a number of bold strikes on
enemy garrisons in his native Stalino (Donetsk) region of
eastern Ukraine. During the Soviet general offensive in
January 1942, he provided substantial support to the regular
Red Army units by conducting reconnaissance in the same area
and finding a route of advance for the Soviet tanks. A
highly
uncommon award commendation! The medal includes original
Variation 1 suspension and screw plate and aside from the
missing back plate, is in excellent condition. Comes with
archival research.
Medal for Combat Service, Type 1, Var. 3, #137950, December 1942 award to
a 22 years old female paramedic of the 19th Rifle Division, Western Front.
She selflessly helped wounded and sick soldiers on the front lines during the ill-
fated Operation Mars (aka Second Rzhev - Sychevka Operation), a part of the long
and mostly futile Soviet offensive efforts that collectively became known as the
"Rzhev Meatgrinder". When her unit retreated, she fearlessly remained at her post
until the Soviet troops returned. The medal is in very fine condition, above the
average for its type. Comes with archival research.
Medal for Combat Service, Type 2, Var. 3 (with U-shaped eyelet), #3185478, circa 1946-47. A very fine example on original WW2 type suspension.
Armed Forces Veteran Medal, 1970s-80s. Variation with a mint mark "LMD" on the
eyelet.
In excellent condition.
