Klub Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 On an other forum (numismatikforum.de) i asked some qustions around som russian and soviet medals and tokens i have. An other member there suggested i should try here. I know - most of you collect coins but it seems that some of you are also interested in medals. I live on an island in sweden - far avay from medalcollectors and referencebooks as Diakov and so on. So i am wery happy for answers and more knowledge about these 5 medals and tokens. Sorry about the ugly pictures. Colour and sharpness has gone avay when i rezised them. 1. A one-sided bronzeplaque size 62 x 90 mm. No signature or markings but teh text A.Tjechow. I know the writer but has anyone any knowledge about when and by who this plaque was made? If it is old and listed i Diakov i would be happy about the Diakov-number.

Klub Posted August 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 3. On the left. 35 mm in diameter. I really dont knov what this is? Some sort of token or... On the frontside ther is a picture that could shov a ship with land beyond. The texyt reads something like this: RUSSK.BALT.?UD.IMECH.A.O. On the back: DETONAT.M-SKAJA On both sides there are socondary made signs. Used as something else later? 4. 15 mm. This i belive is a german or austrian "spielgeld" or "rechenpfennig". On front there is a picture of a woman - godess. On the backside there is text that seems to possibly be russian that reads: RUSK or something. Could this be "spielgeld" made for the russian market. Does someone knov if this "spielgeld" has any conection with russia? To this day i have found about 20 different "spielgeld" with russian tsars and a pair of generals.

Klub Posted August 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 4. Size 65 mm bronze. I understand the purpose and when this medal was struck. 15´th International Fysiological Congress 1935shoving a picture of I.M. Setjenov. But does someone know who the artist is who has made it and if it was given to participants of the congress as a memory? Maybe this medal is not usual? 5. Also 65 mm. This medal of Felix Dzerzhinsky i only have seen in other variants. This one with only his signature and lifeyears i dont know when and for what purpose it was made? I GUESS in the sixties or seventies but does someone her know anything more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rarity rating R3 (very rare). Made by firm "Werner & Sons". They produced 8 different plaques related to Russian royalty, writers, singers, composers. First time I see this one.

All early Soviet medals (prior to 1950th) are rare in my opinion. 5. Struck in 1960. By Belokurov. Shkurko/Salykov 183. There were 1316 medals struck.

Klub Posted September 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Thank You IgorS! You answered most of my questions! I am general collector of medals of whole world and bring together library of all countrys and times is for me impossible. I have no knowledge of russian coins but i saw a qustion in an other thread about the engraver Hedlinger and soemone who asked for pictures from that book and i will take some if there are some illustrations of russian medals and coins in it. But it will take some time. Friendly regards Hannes i Sweden - Gotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
