I have two awarded to Colonel Boris Mikhaylovich Fedorov. One has a s/n ther does not but is noted in his award book.

Here are a couple more. The one on the left has a replacement link, so no indication whether the suspension is original, and someone has tried to clean it along the way. The one on the right is pretty solid, missing the enamel but otherwise it seems pretty good. The ribbons are problematic, of course.

Thanks, Doc, but Alan's example is probably the nicest I have ever seen. What a beauty!

I can remember when these were cheap enough that you could make cool little designs on your scanner with them....

Dave... so many!!!

Back in "The Day" I used to have a contact that would send me one For Valor and one For Military Merit per month (sometimes more) - I believe they were coming from Estonia. The For Valors were $35 each and the Military Merits were $30 each. At one point, I had several dozen of each of them, but then dumped the whole lot for what I paid for them. If only I knew then what I know now!
