Guest Rick Research Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 :Cat-Scratch: Look closely and you can see the handles of the hammer and sickle still projecting from the bottom of the new worked-over wreath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TacHel Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) Orders are all numbered. But, not all medals... Ch.Salut Christophe! I said "decorations"... (higher than medals)And Christophe is right, some medals (very few) are also numbered such as the Interior Ministry's medal for combat service in the Caucasus.

TacHel Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Presidential Decree number 1099 of September 7, 2009. This is the new Order of Ushakov, ribbon mounted and bestowed in a single grade (class). My apologies, to date, I haven't found a decent size picture.
