Just had a quick check on the Mondvor site and found that they have added another version which they have called their new type 3:
Type 1: Early.
Cover: thick red.
Serial number: no letter, 8 digit number, asterisk (e.g. № 00072940 *)
Type 2: Later, widespread.
Cover: white thin card.
Serial number: letter, 7 digit number, asterisk (e.g. B 0023481 *)
Coat of arms: 11 ribbons
Date: 194_
Type 2a: Later.
Cover: white thin card.
Serial number: letter, 6 digit number in a smaller font, no asterisk (e.g. O 383895)
Coat of arms: 11 ribbons
Date: 194_
Type 3: Later.
Cover: white thin card.
Serial number: letter, 7 digit number, asterisk (e.g. Я 0518963 *)
Coat of arms: 16 ribbons
Date: 194_
Type 4: Latest version.
Cover: white thin card.
Serial number: letter, 7 digit number in same size font as type 2, asterisk (e.g. Ю 0192957 *)
Coat of arms: 15 ribbons
Date: 19__
In going through my file of documents I have come across the following abbreviations:
1. кан. йодоф.
2. и/с after ranks of Captain or Major.
3. хмор.
4. Зам.
5. On the first attached picture I have "Chief ? 72nd Rifle Corps". What is the second word on the first line.
6. On the second attached picture what does the abbreviation after 358 mean?
7. On the third attached picture I have "Narkom ? of the Azerbaijani SSR." What is the second word?
As usual any help is greatly appreciated.
