Just in case, here's the one that started the thread:

The going rate in Russia is about $80 per medal. This is one expensive set of commemorative medals!

Rusty,

Great job buddy!
Quite expensive set indeed, if selling for about $80 each Medal! Some $1,440.00 for the 18 :cry:
And at least all those you posted are quite nice!

Thanks,

Dolf

Funny that they all have a look-a-like ribbon from the Capture of Berlin.

The committee carries out(spends) meetings of veterans of the wars devoted to strengthening of the international communications(connections), friendship and mutual understanding between peoples, taking part in route of fascism.

Active publishing is conducted. It has prepared and released series of books with me***rs of veterans of Great Patriotic War.

Anyway, back to the subject, after all the Medal that started this thread wasn't issued by a particular Partisan Veterans organisation, but rather by a larger organisation of Veterans of War, probably including former Partisans among their members! Interesting!

To me it explained how a non-government organization was able to produce medals to be manufactured at the state mint.
