Prices listed by www.mirnagrad.ru
(in Russian): worth a visit although they appear
to be on the low side compared to what I have actually
seen on any market, especially the Russian one. The
list is, however, extremely useful to have an over view
of all variations!
I recently visited Prague and Vienna
and was surprised how high prices of Soviet awards are
in the Czech Republic. But when I came to Vienna I was
even more surprised (Order of Labour 1.100, Order of
October Revolution 200 - in Euros!).
September 2007
I have recently travelled extensively through Ukraine, Moldova and Belarus and discovered that the only medals for sale are either all fakes (including declared copies) or just simply suspicious and outrageously priced pieces... . Gone are the days of buying. A 20 years RKKA 2500 USD no sweat. An Order of the Red Banner of Labour, the most common type 50 USD!
Prices of Soviet awards
in Ukraine October 2003 - February 2004
A friend regularly reports prices
of Soviet awards in Ukraine and concludes that all markets
take cue from Kiev (prices are in USD and are applicable
also to Odessa, Kiev, Lvov, Rovno, Uzhgorod and Chernovtsi).
First prices are from mid-October
2003 and the second from December 2003. The last price
is from February 2004.
