    I happy to finally have added an Order of the October Revolution to my collection with this small group to Nikolai Ivanovich Shuverov.

    Order of the October Revolution #87,840 - 16.3.81

    Order of the Badge of Honor #951,876 - 12.12.73

    Order of the Patriotic War 2nd Class 1985 #5,791,591 - 1985

    Unfortunately, I have no information about the recipient except that he was a veteran of WW2 (as indicated by the OGPW). I don't think I can get research either, since the awards are non-military (the OGPW doesn't count because it is 1985 issue).

    The awards are indeed non-military and the 2nd Class OPW indicates that he didn't receive any bravery awards, so there are probably no documents for him in the archives.

    I looked after his name and he has most likely no military awards till beginning 1943.

    As he has a second class OGPW-1985, he has no wartime 1st or 2nd class OGPW, but he could have a late Red Star, Bravery Medal or military merit medal.

    But it´s a nice group :cheers: , you do not see Oktober Revolution awards so often in a group, mostly separate sold.

    best regards

    Thanks! That's why I jumped on it when I had the chance.

    Thanks for your thoughts on research, Auke and Andreas. I don't think I will try it. There is not much of a chance of results, and I have other awards still to research.

    :cheers:

    Nice grouping! I am surprised to see that he does not have a ORB of Labor as well. Wasnt that usually the first labor order that is typically presented
