    Default Liberation of Belgrade 1st variant

    Since today I am one step closer to having the full set of campaign medals complete. That means, all 1st variants (with seperate rings and their original double plated suspensions) including all their sub-variations. Today I finally managed to add a 1st variant Liberation of Belgrade medal to my collection. This is probably also the most faked of all campaign medals by the way. I usually prefer the worn ribbons more but I couldn't pass on this beauty today

    The only two missing now are the Defense of Leningrad "short horizon - polished sky" variant and the Victory over Japan 1st variant with "straight 4". Any help or tips where I can find these are very welcome

    For now, here's my latest gem in the campaign medal collection:

    This is a beautiful example Marcel

    Have you managed to find the VoJ straight 4 yet?

    I did come across a few VoJ medals with straight 4 but they had either a replaced suspension or were a 2nd variant and I am looking for a first variant with original suspension. So the search continues haha

    Nice work :-) I was just glad to have the campaign medals in one form or another, searching for all subvariations like you're doing is true dedication (or madness :P ). How many will you have in total then?

    It is madness indeed. Just discovered another tiny variation on the Sevastopol medal where the dots do and don't meet the edge. So that said I still need three more.
    I now have 33 different campaign medals. When I have them all I will make a new thread.....if I ever manage to get them complete haha

    I also want to complete variants. I go slowly but my reference is mondvor. I just want the variants indicated on the page, except in some cases.
