1940
Tal
I stumbled across this image on the internet. I think you are going to have to revise your list again. A 1940 mark medal Regards Chris |

VERY NICE!
Now the question is, were the gold medals also have the "1940" variation?

Notes from Victorov-Orlov
Igor Victorov-Orlov, "Achievement Medals of the Soviet Union," The Medal Collector 34, 7 (July 1983): 26-28
Again, I encourage all to read the original, but some "high points" follow: 1 August 1939, the 2nd Session of the Supreme Soviet decided to establish an "Exhibition of Achievements in Agriculture" at a site just outside of Moscow (Pushkinskore). In the first (1939) session, 1000 Diplomas of the First Degree were awarded (and included Rubles 10,000 and a car) and 4000 Diplomas of the Second Degree (Rubles 5,000 and a motorcycle). In addition, medals were awarded [and Victorov-Orlov does not make it clear how these related to the diplomas]: 1st class - 32-mm gold, 1000 awarded 2nd class - 26-mm gold, 2000 awarded 3rd class - 32-mm silver, 3000 awarded 4th class - 26-mm silver, 15000 awarded [Does anyone collect these cars and mororcycles as a part of a "complete group"?] The medals were worn on the left breast from a green ribbon. A similar exhibition was held in 1940/41, but had to be cut short on account of the outbreak of the GPW. The exhibitions were not restarted until 1954. On 5 May 1958, the exhibition was renamed at the "All-Union Exhibition of National Economic Achievements" and was expanded beyond agriculture to include industrial production. New medals came with this change in nomenclature: 1st class - gold 2nd class - silver 3rd class - bronze All these second-variety medals were 23-mm and were worn from a magenta/rose-purple ribbon on the right breast. Both issues had both screwback and pinback medals. ======== Observations and questions: 1- A 1939 issue and a 1940/41 issue, pre-war. 2- A continuation of the pre-war medals (undated?) for 1954-57. 3- New medals for 1958-??. Rethinking: All-Union Agricultural Exhibition (BCXB) medals (1939-40, 1954-58): 1- 1st class - 32-mm gold medal: 1.1- 1939 - serial-numbered 1.1.1- screwback 1.1.2- pinback 1.2- 1940 - serial-numbered 1.2.1- screwback 1.2.2- pinback 1.3- 1954-57 - undated, unnumbered 1.3.1- screwback 1.3.2- pinback 2- 2nd class - 26-mm gold medal: 2.1- 1939 - serial-numbered 2.1.1- screwback 2.1.2- pinback 2.2- 1940 - serial-numbered 2.2.1- screwback 2.2.2- pinback 2.3- 1954-57 - undated, unnumbered 2.3.1- screwback 2.3.2- pinback 3- 3rd class - 32-mm silver medal: 3.1- 1939 - serial-numbered 3.1.1- screwback 3.1.2- pinback 3.2- 1940 - serial-numbered 3.2.1- screwback 3.2.2- pinback 3.3- 1954-57 - undated, unnumbered 3.3.1- screwback 3.3.2- pinback 4- 4th class - 26-mm silver medal: 4.1- 1939 - serial-numbered 4.1.1- screwback 4.1.2- pinback 4.2- 1940 - serial-numbered 4.2.1- screwback 4.2.2- pinback 4.3- 1954-57 - undated, unnumbered 4.3.1- screwback 4.3.2- pinback How do we integrate these: "Type 4 - Large silver medal, NO S/N, SB, no "X" on the tractor's grill. "Type 4 Var. 1 - Large silver medal, NO S/N, PB, no "X" on the tractor's grill" Are the "brass" medals just cheap "gold" medals post-war? Viz: "BRASS MEDAL: "Type 1 - Large brass medal, No S/N, SB. "Type 1 Var. 1 - Large brass medal, No S/N, PB. "Type 2 - Large brass medal, No S/N, SB - no "X" on the tractor's grill. "Type 2 Var. 1 - Large brass medal, No S/N, PB - no "X" on the tractor's grill." All-Union Exhibition of National Economic Achievements (BDHX) medal (1958-??): 1- 1st class - 23-mm gold medal 1.1- screwback 1.2- pinback 2- 2nd class - 23-mm "silver" (copper-nickle) medal 2.1- screwback 3.2- pinback 3- 3rd class - 23-mm bronze medal 3.1- screwback 3.2- pinback :confused: ========== General comment: When someone does a lot of serious research and publishes it in the major US phaleristic journal, it deserves to be read and appreciated in the original. No offense, but I continue to be amazed regarding the degree of studied unawareness of the OMSA and its journal that seems to exist! Ed Haynes OMSA 1299/LM78 |

Two small gold
These are two small gold issue medals, one was isssued in 58 (no Number).
It was issued after an issue of a gold copper medal to the same women one year later. I have the docs. Ed Haynes, the copper did not replace the the gold, they are for different things. One is for excellent work and one is for collective work. My guess is the excellent work was binned in 58 and maybe order of lenins where given instead....yeh, that is an unsupported guess and part of the fun of this game. Regards Chris......PS I did not find these on ebay, but walking the streets talking to Russians. |
