    Well I have been admiring all of the red stars listed previously and I finally bit the bullet and bought one. I prefer the worn stuff and this one isnt mint but its got no enamel damage and a nice low number - 443651

    Hope you like it
    Regards

    Cheers! Google order of the red star and it will give you a rundown on them, or have a look at other on the forum, they can be researched to find out the act that earned the Russian solider the star

    Same here, I have been taken by the soviet militaria lately, I have another coming as well as some capture and defense medals plus dont get me started on glass canteens, cant get enough of them!

    Looks like a nice one! Do you plan to get it researched? If so, when?

    I would like to get it researched but have no idea of cost or how to go about. Might be a good one, being a low number
