Re: Dating Screwplates

Very similar, if not identical, to my 2.73m RS.
Now we're on to something. :)

Re: Dating Screwplates

I have these three RS, (MMD- T6 V5.3), but all have the screwplates wrong, which model can be the right one?

Re: Dating Screwplates

Why do you think they're wrong?

Marsino,

it is due to a small break of the die used to strike the medallion.

Re: Dating Screwplates

Not really related to the "dating" discussion, but since this topic has caused people to squint closely at screwplates, I hope this question doesn't draw us off topic:

On Mongolian awards, screwplates that bear evidence on the reverse of being recycled gallantry or combat service medals occasionally appear. One example shown. Is this seen on Soviet awards as well?
