Thanks for the info Marc. It makes sense that they might use different material to differentiate it from a standard (actual) piece.
I agree - I wonder if they were removed with the idea of selling them or a sort of sentimental value? More importantly, I'd like to meet that press operator and arrange a few exchanges! :D Anyway - Marc - congrats on a very nice and interesting piece!

This is a one bloc solid piece, right? The holes where the rivets would have been are just holes, from one side of the bloc to the other opposite side? Thanks, Dolf PS: As for me, yes, I guess I can imagine the feeling ;) |

I would have to disagree. To test pressure you would need the die to strike the end product metal. If you test it with a softer or harder metal the results are off. Also, why drill/punch holes in a test piece??? I do like the piece though! Rusty.

Dgharvey,
According to Mc Daniel's book, the one with a flat reverse should be a Type 4. Dolf |

Type 4
Thanks Dolf-
Just after I posted, I noticed that the difference between the Long, Semi-Long and Short ovals has to do with the length of the spans underneath the hammer & sickle. Judging by that, mine is a T4. |

RBL twin brothers
Hi to all,
Nothing special, just common orders of Red banner of labor. But for me it happens first time, that I found orders where serial numbers are number after number. So welcome to my collection- twin brothers snr. 1237041 and 1237042. Regards, Lauri |

Hi,
they came from the same source without documents. I think they are unissued orders. Regards, Lauri |
