In the XV-th Century, there originated in Russia the practice, unknown in other countries at that time, of awarding all the participants in a major campaign special tokens of honor - gold medals. The higher the status of the recipient was, the bigger and heavier medal he might expect to receive. On November 10, 1917 the National Russian Executive Committee and the Council of Peoples Commissars issued a Decree on the Abolition of Estates and Civilian Ranks. The Decree eliminated the orders and medals of Czarist Russia. The first Soviet Order, the Order of the Red Banner of the Russian Federation, appeared in 1918. We have good collection of interesting Soviet medals and orders. In this site we have a short description of these Soviet and Russian medals but we will give you more information with your purchase.
