This original order is in pristine condition with all details crisp. The red enamel is flawless without any dings or scratches. The reverse shows a beautiful toning and its screw has not been shortened. The nut is time period.
This order hasn’t been researched but chances are it was awarded for defeating the Prague Uprising in 1968 or even the Egyptian-Israeli Confrontation in 1970.
A beautiful piece with great eye appeal!
