This original order of the Red Star is in an excellent, well above average condition. The details are mostly visible and the enamels problem free with some minor contact marks only. There have been no repairs and the screw is full length. It comes with a well fitted and time period screwplate.
Unfortunately the citation for the Red Star is not available online at this moment. This might change in the future
