The order is in outstanding, excellent condition. The enamel is perfect, free of even the microscopic contact marks, flakes, or other wear that could be found with a 10x loupe. The golden wreath is essentially pristine; the platinum bas-relieve has only a few microscopic contact marks completely invisible to the naked eye. The stippling on the reverse is perfect and beautifully defined.
The order comes on an original suspension device, a two-layer model in steel with integral catch of the pin. The old, probably original ribbon is perfectly preserved and immaculately clean. The connecting link appears to be original; its ends are still joined with solder in the characteristically seamless manner.
The order booklet filled-out on 14 May 1966 shows only a single entry for the Order of Lenin #338073 which was bestowed by a Supreme Soviet decree on 2 April 1966.
The order booklet is excellent, near mint condition. Neither the cover nor internal pages show any soiling or wear. To summarize, this is
truly a
perfect documented Order of Lenin - literally impossible to upgrade condition-wise!
