This is again an interesting topic, remember the other thread on the Order for Civil Valor from a while back.
Dolf, if its any consolation I also go by the Herfurth system, three names, different time periods in Mongolian history = three Orders.
This is of course my own personal preferance.
If you notice Yuri for example uses different methods than Herfurth for some and not for others.
As William says, I also wish there was one system for Mongolian awards.
Maybe if there is any interest we could post any seen variations (sub-variations ?)
We could then decide amongst ourselves what system to use for these Orders.
What do you guys think?
Wanted to share with you my latest. A pinback. Common. Cheap by modern standards. But you just look at the enamelwork!
The second scan is for those who are not into Mongolian (yet:D ), to compare with a common T6 Soviet labour order. Gives you an idea about the size of these things.

A really nice order; I have #3478. Does your's have a slight "rattle" (a little movement between the seal and the star)? Many of these seem to have that.
