TO be a day (or so depending upon exactly where you are) ahead, Attached is a scan of a lapel pin for the February revolution (Dated Feb 27 - old style - on the obverse). I can't get the rear to scan because of a pin. but it is marked on the pin so you could not read it anyway.

But the revolution began as an "International Womens Day" march on March 8 (Feb 23 old style) for bread and peace. Are there any other March 8, International Womens' Day badges, or February Revolution (in March) badges that anyone may care to add? I have a Bulgarian "8 Marta" badge (Post Soviet) which I cannot find at the moment. (Maybe my wife took it!?)

I'm new to this forum and am looking for someone who can identify (or direct me to someone who can) the uniforms in the attached photograph. The picture is of my grandfather (Ivanoff) and his father. Also, it would be of great help if anyone can translate the text on the back of the photo.

The central figure on the medal is very reminiscent of France's Lady Liberty. I can read on the obverse "Long Life", "Russian Democratic Republic" and "Free Russia". On the left seems to be a laborer, in the typical glorified Soviet style. On the right are the symbols -- cross, anchor and heart -- that I associate with the Imperial Russian Society for Faith, Hope and Love (or something like that) that treated wounded veterans.

My references are not as good as they should be and I can't find anything like this medal anywhere. Can anyone help me? I know this isn't exactly a Soviet medal, but I don't think "Free Russia" can be associated with Imperial Russia either. I know that the Russian Democratic Republic is what Lenin called the nation before it became the USSR, right? But this isn't one of the few very early medals that I have read about. Maybe it is a society medal rather than a government medal?

Thanks for any help you can give.

Its a set of Kornilov boards and tabs from 1919-1921 captured in the Ukraine during the Russian Civil War. Odd enough, but still with the original capture wrapping and NKVD inventory tags. Tags say " Rostov Oblast Archive NKVD".

There are a dozen sets in total. Some molding, but you have to imagine where these have been for the past 70+ years.

I have told that is Russia´s provisional government´s medal from 1917. So ít is not soviet medal but quite near the area.

But is it the medal provisional government´s medal from 1917?

I didn't find it on AVERS 5 or any other book.

Also I don´t know if it is a fake and how common it is ?

Some comments, please!

I personally think its for the "Civil and Revolutionary Army Partisans" 1917/18.
