A numbered order with a known recipient is especially valued, because the serial number allows the future owner to research the award and the officer's combat path and unit history in the Central Archives of the Russian Ministry of Defense (TsAMO). With its documented 1945 award date and family history, this order is a meaningful piece for any collection of Soviet WWII medals and orders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrder of the Red Star No. 1938542\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecipient details (name, rank, year of birth) and a photograph of the soldier, on request\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarefully packed and shipped worldwide from Ukraine with a tracking number.
