SWE Erik Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 This piece is a duplicate award which is so marked.Very Nice! But what is that yellow looking stuff on the order? paint?/Erik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Hello SWE Eric,Actually the yellowed areas are the remnants of what must have been a clear coat of some kind of varnish. Under normal light, this contrast is not quite so clearly defined. Interestingly, Lt. Kobyletsky?s Alexander Nevsky has a more intact coat of this varnish, or whatever it is; but still with a couple of ?open? areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Wolfe Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Here's my Order of the Red Star that I just got from a dealer here in Canada. It's numbered 998667 on the back. I didn't show the back as I have mounted it, as I do all such pieces, on two pieces of cardboard covered with felt. The back of the bottom piece is cut out for the attachment "washer" so the the piece sets flat in my medal drawers. I don't like specimens sitting on angles and if I ever want to remove I just need to unscrew it as you would if it was on a uniform.
