Medal "55 Years Of The Kursk Battle".

wheats101 · 05-04-2003, 05:02 PM

I have just received a medal that my supplier calls a "Kursk Tank Battle" medal, dated 1998. Has anyone seen one of these? I tried posting a photo but I can't seem to make the image small enough to fit. The medal is round on a 5-sided suspension. The medal pictures a tank in the center, over a large star & the dates 1943-1998 are along the bottom.

It's a VET medal.

That's the one! What can you tell me about it? Does it have any value? Thanks.

It has value, if you collect Unofficial medals, made by Russian veterans organizations. Just for the sake of couriosity, what was the price paid for that medal?

It came with a group of common Jubilee medals and similar items...probably $2.00-$3.00 at the most.
