Thanks for this.
Here's a document for a low-numbered award. |

Re: Medal "25th Anniversary Of People's Revolution".
And here are the two variations (Battushig # 42.1 and 42.2).
Variation 1 (broad numerals) shows an observed serial number range of 159 to 9116, while number 2 (thin numerals) shows a range of 10327 to 20008, so we can guess that the "line" falls around 10000. Also a questionale type 3, on strange suspension. Last edited by medals73; 09-14-2011 at 03:35 PM. |

Re: Medal "25th Anniversary Of People's Revolution".
Seems a little strange that #33 was issued on 12th May 1947 but this one from 25th August 1946 is #13671 awarded to Hajanirvaa Natsatij. Awards first paperwork later?

Re: Medal "25th Anniversary Of People's Revolution".
Good question. Let me check through my stacks of documents and see how the dates match up. I suspect they held back a range at the "top" for senior people. I have been told that this was done with other awards.
Choibalsan would get #1, no matter when he got it. :rolleyes: |

Guys,
I heard that there is an enameled version of this medal. Truth or ... ? Marc |

Re: Medal "25th Anniversary Of People's Revolution".
One German source book lists this and copies have since appeared on the market. Whether it is an official Mongolian issue or something some high-ranking Soviets made up because they wanted something sexy (Brezhnev would have put diamonds and rubies on his?) is hotly debated. Personally, I see it as a vanity production or perhaps just an invention of the European dealer community.
