Soviet Order of the Red Star with low number 18676

[MASteel]

Hello,

What would be fair offer for an Order of Red Star with low number 18676? I searched web and found many different prices for originals, depending mostly about number ie. time of issue.

Enamel is intact. Order is said to be Finnish vet's war souvenier.

Thanks in advance,

MASteel

I'm afraid it's not mine but I'm trying to buy it from the owner before he places it into internet auction. So I try to figure out a fair offer for the current owner! So is 500 fair?

Thanks,

Ok Alex, thanks for your help!

Yes, 500 USD seems fair. It is probably a spring 1940 award for the Finnish campaign.

Actually, if you look at the pinned thread here for verified dated serial numbers, 18,XXX was probably circa February-March 1941.
