I don't think tjhat is original one, this is the order of Red Banner from the 1920's from the Georgian SSR I think, if this will be original, starting price is around 8000 USD
To Militarimania:
That is a story from my friend from Russia. Once his friend walked in the WB Kassel, and found one simple war time Guards badge, he bought it for 10 eur and the seller tell him that he has some of them in the hidden boxes somwhere under table, mixed with some kind of broken German medals, buttons etc ( the stuff usually have all the dealers who buy stuff from newspaper ads) He found a couple of badges and gave him, and another badge he found he says oh, that is the Lenin's guards badge, it cost 15.... That was a low numbered screw back order of Lenin.....

Usually the soviet star cockades is a rare in Russia, but is not a rare in Germany, due of all the German soldiers have them as a trophees.

Please show images of the reverse. As Dimas has written, these are extremely rare and heavily reproduced/faked - It will be important to see the nut, stud and the patina on the reverse.
