One of the interesting things about collecting WWII items is that each of the niche categories has its strong suit. For example in the Japanese subcategory its all about swords and edged weapons. When it comes to the Russia subcategory the clear winner is heavy medal! More specifically awards with what the youth today call "bling" dominate the boards. The top selling medal in this group attracted three different bidders over $2500.
