Re: Excellent badges II
Norm,
I'm still having problems figuring these out. Let's just say that I like the first one, and that I have some "uneasiness" about the second one. Marc |

Re: Excellent badges
I've got a nice excellent driver's badge as well that I display with my WW2 ODMs. I've attached some images for comparison.
You might notice some subtle differences: front axle, front fender, windscreen, and a small, inverted V in the wreath at 12 o'clock above the white enamel circle. I take all these differences as variations from different dies used by different manufacturers in different eras. The discussion about this badge appears here: http://www.soviet-awards.com/forum/s...html#post62383 Igor has (or had) some nice images of Otlichnik badges for reference, and I think the Mondvor site has some as well. edit: BTW, I like to think mine is from WW2 era although I can't remember why I decided that was the case.

Re: Excellent badges
Norm,
For whatever reason, I don't like your Truck Driver's badge very much: screwpost, solder, enamel, details (or lack thereof) in the H&S, truck etc. Once again, not my area of highest competency, but personally, I'd give this one a miss. Marc |

Re: Fake WWII Otlichnik Badges
Hello,
I`ve purchased this one quite some time ago, but I don`t know much about how to recognize a good one, because I usually do collect soviet orders and medals... is it genuine, or a fake ? Jens |

Jens,
I think that it is :thumbsdown The screwpost attachment is apparently not what it should be. Marc |
