Re: Order Of The National Flag.
They are coming over the Yalu routinely. I think once a week. The number coming out of the DPRK is tiny to what is in the DPRK and still they pour out. When there is a "free market" throughout Korea these will be available by the tonne. Estimates on the number awarded are continuously being adjusted upward. At least twice as many ONF1 have been awarded as to what was thought this time last year - and they all continue to be awarded.

Re: Order Of The National Flag 3rd Class.
Here is a run-of-the-mill Type 8. Often found in vast numbers. Apart from the better than usual condition what on earth would make me pay double digits for it?

Re: Order Of The National Flag 3rd Class.
The metal of the clasp is extremely soft.

The neck suspended Order is identical to the normal issue apart from the pin.
That's the reason I paid double digits (neither being a 9). The seller wished to get rid of the set as quickly as possible and was completely unwilling to discuss its origin.

Re: Order Of The National Flag 3rd Class.
Here is the ribbon bar.
Due to the vast number of variations of remaining Types of ONF3 it may be a considerable period before I'll have sorted the pile of ONF3s of as yet unposted variations - but they will come.

Re: Order Of The National Flag 3rd Class.
I think these are for 5-15 years service to the Army/Party (depending on situation) as well as for other meritorious acts. Very much the same as a 1944-58 Soviet Red Star. I wouldn't be surprised if there were nearly as many of them as of Red Stars but there is considerably less collector demand.
One of the ONF3s I have from 1992 is for work in damming a river - whilst in military service. I'd have to say the best comparison would be to compare these to Red Stars. For combat during the war and since for meritorious and long service as there are not yet KPA long service Medals (which the USSR got in 1958).

Re: DPRK Ribbon Bars.
Difference between Soviet made ribbon bar and North Korean made ribbon bar.
This ribbon bar is for Order of the National Flag(국기훈장) 3rd class. Maybe the other orders and medals will same like this. Up - Soviet made(50s) Down - DPRK made Soviet made ribbon bar is best quality. Made with white metal, like WW2 era Soviet medal suspension or ribbon bar. I find this Soviet made ribbon bar in Bulgaria. Collectors can find DPRK awards in communist bloc countries, especially who help North Korea during the Korean War. North Korea awarded many orsers and medals for their merit, support and friendship between N.Korea-communist bloc. |
