Order of the Badge of Honor, Type 4 Var. 1, 169941, circa 1952. One of the
earliest of the "hollow back" Badges of Honor, this scarce sub-variation features
worker's coveralls without a belt and the serial number without an underline.
The serial number is among the lowest observed for this version. In superb
condition, practically impossible to upgrade.
Order of the Badge of Honor / Order of Honor. Subtitled
History and Awards , by Oleg Derevyanko and Valeriy
Durov, C. 2020. Russian text. Large format h/c with tremendous
amount of information and photos. The book is a result of
years of painstaking research and contains massive amount of
data never published before. It will for sure remain the
ultimate word on the subject. Highly recommended for Russian-
speaking collectors and historians.

late-1944. Rare sub-variation with larger font in the second line of the mint

relatively few WW2 issues of the suspension type Badge of Honor. In excellent
condition.
