Order of the Patriotic War, 2nd class, Type 3, #5916646, 1985 issue.
In solid sterling silver (925/1000 silver content) with gold plating and enamels, 46.5 mm tall x 44.6 mm wide; weighs 27.2 g not including the screw plate. Variation without a well-defined depression around the screw post, less common than the version with the circular depression.
In excellent, near mint condition. The enamel is perfect, completely free of any wear visible even with a 10x loupe. The details of the starburst, sword and rifle are likewise pristine. The fragile factory-applied dark oxidation finish on the rifle and sword is completely intact and clearly visible. The screw post is full length, approx. 13.5 mm, and includes an original screw plate. Condition-wise, this superb example is literally impossible to upgrade.
