Jubilee Medal "XXX Years Of The Soviet Army And Navy".

[Nota Bene]

Andrew,

I was actually surprised about this sudden interest in the BW documents. To be honest I have never considered them rare, just unusual. OK, I guess I sit corrected :)

You know what, I have 5 or 6 huge boxes full of award cards (thousands of them), so I am not sure I would want to do the digging to make a $20 sale :), but for the sake of research I will. I have thought for some reason, that the BW variation was made at the same time, so I am curious to see some dates.

Alexei

P.S. I believe there are three variations (the collar tab on Stalin's coat, remember?)

As you know, there were two main variations of medal - with somewhat flattened file-polished ring (main early variation - top picture) and with circular ring (later variation - bottom picture).
So I would bring this black-and-white document into a corellation with later medal with a circular ring. Maybe people do not pay much attention on the documents variations, but personally I do like documents very much. So if you find such black-and-white booklet please let me know.
Thanks!
