In 1940, after the passage of the Choibalsan's Constitution in Mongolia, there was a need to reform the existing award system including the design of the awards and their types. The design of all three orders (RBCV, RBLV and OPS) have been changed and two medals (Honorary Medal of Combat and Honorary Medal of Labor) and one badge (Badge of the Hero) have been newly instituted. The process of designing and manufacturing of the new orders and medals took months of back and forth between the Presidium of State Small Khural and Mongolian Embassy in Moscow (in fact with the Moscow Monetny Dvor). Below is the copy of one of the telegrams sent by Chairman of the Presidium of the State Small Khural G. Bumtsend to Mongolian Ambassador to USSR J. Sambuu at the end of 1940. The telegram had a bearing on the ultimate design of the Badge of the Hero, Order of the Red Banner of Military Valor and the Combat/Labor medals.
Translation from Russian into English Urgent To Comrade Sambuu, Trade Representative’s Office, Moscow We have the following answers to your telegram # 119: 1) The diameter of the Combat and Labour Medals should be 36 millimetres. The diameter of 32 millimetres that you have proposed is small, taking into consideration the ornament. 2) We agree that the ornament on the red enamel that runs along the edge of the medal should be gold-plated. 3) The sabre of the horseman should have sheath. 4) Bas-relief of Sukhbaatar on the Badge of the Hero should be made of platinum and if possible no more than 20 millimetres in size. It would not look good in profile but in half-turned position. 5) The shields with numbers denoting the consequent awards should filled with blue enamel. Bumtsend (Signed) Stamped with the Stamp of the Presidium of the State Small Khural of the Mongolian People’s Republic # 24 Last edited by CtahhR; 02-13-2012 at 11:13 AM. |
