It's most likely a combat awarded Red Star.
Red Star # 1608159 was awarded on August 15 1945 for combat actions
Red Star # 1649705 was awarded on August 18 1945 for combat actions
Screws were often lost and replaced so a loose fit is quite common with awards with replaced screws. Not really a problem and also doesn't really effect the value.

Thank you for that, Marcel. Any idea where and how I could start looking for a specific recipient?

18th August is (was) airforce day in the Soviet Union, as well as Lilly Litvak’s birthday, and mine!
I probably should have kept that one!
Ah, well... it’s in a good new home.

Kohima,
I suggest Matt Jansen at Sovietorders.com for research. Great individual and very trustworthy. I've used him for research on several occasions. He also assisted me in dealing with an issue where a vendor passed off a counterfeit group to me. Good guy.

I’m currently getting this award researched by him, along with two others. From what I’ve seen, he comes highly recommended. I look forward to seeing what he turns up. Of course, I’ll update the thread with the research if/when he digs it up.
