re: #33. Medal "40 Years of the PRL.
Here is a document (removed from the plastic sleeve) to Artur Alojzego Wiczok.
This Medal was awarded over 4 million times and is extremely commonplace. This document with the Medal (and red plastic sleeve) was bought and delivered for under $2.

Your example is on the ribbon either for the Socialist Youth Association Decoration of Janek Krasicki or the Polish-Soviet Friendship Society Meritorious Member Decoration. Regards Eddie

Hi Taz!
Thank you for the information! I knew that ribbon, but until I went to my collection, I didn´t realize that is was the Janek Krasicki medal. I didn´t know that this could be done, it was normal this thing? Thanks!! |
