Alex . Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 This is modern issued order. Original, 1929 issued orders, look slightly different.

paul wood Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 They were issued for many years. I have seen them with award letters from the 60s and 70s and i would not be surprised if they are still being awarded by the titular head of the Romanovs. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
