 <\/p>\n

This original order is in excellent, far above average condition with all details crisp. The red enamel is beautiful and without repairs and only has a tiny superficial chip on top of the large banner, barely noticeable with the naked eye. The orders shows an attractive light patina and almost all of the gold plating is still present. Its connection ring is uncut and the double layer steel suspension is time period to the order.<\/p>\n

Reissue awards were given by the Soviet Government to a recipient, as a replacement piece, in exchange for the same order or medal of an earlier type which was no longer authorized for awarding by new regulations. The new reissue piece retains the serial number from the original award piece. Many early suspension or screwback awards were exchanged for the new type of award, particularly during the period immediately following the end of the Great Patriotic War. During the June 1945 Victory Parade in Moscow following the defeat of Germany in World War Two, soldiers participating in the Parade were expected to have the latest type of award on their uniforms and undoubtedly many were exchanged for that parade. These pieces are extremely rare.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
