    Is it just me or do some things not look right? The serial number and mint mark on the #2 Red Banner for instance look strange... As does the numerical shield on the #3 Red Banner... As does the serial number on the OPW1... But most of all the serial number of the first Red Star you posted. :unsure:

    Hello,

    I am not sure it it is the lighting but the white enamel on the Red Banners does not look normal from the photos; unless the enamel were repaired.

    There's something odd about his award book:

    - it was issues on November 28, 1945 and had only his HSU and Lenin awards filled in initially,

    - his other awards were added at later date - see different handwriting, stamped in awards instead of written in and use of different color ink.

    But he definitely had his other awards before November 1945, so why didn't they fill in his early awards first and then added HSU/Lenin?

    I am sure there's explanation for this, just want to know the logic behind.
