Order of the Patriotic War, 1st cl., Type 1, Var. 3, #23731,
awarded in December 1943 to a colonel, Deputy Chief of the
Artillery of the 4th Shock Army, 1st Baltic Front. This was a
cumulative award for ensuring flawless delivery of ammunition
and supervising good maintenance of the artillery pieces from
the beginning of the war, but in particular for his
outstanding performance during the offensive near Nevel in the
fall of 1943. The order is in fine to very fine condition,
much better than majority of Type 1 awards; it has enamel
repaired on the top arm but is otherwise very nicely preserved
and has never been converted to a screw back. Comes with
archival research.

Order of the Patriotic War 1st cl., Type 2 Var. 1, #181357,
awarded on 4 May 1945 to a Guards Lieutenant, Commander of
an IS-2 ("Iosif Stalin") Heavy Tank Platoon, 1st
Belorussian Front, for the Battle of Berlin. During the
breakthrough on the Oder and subsequent advance into Berlin,
he destroyed with the fire of his tank's main gun and smashed
with the threads 5 enemy artillery pieces, 2 mortars, 9
machine gun nests, 2 observation posts, and 4 motor vehicles
loaded with military equipment. He and his crew were also
credited with killing 54 enemy soldiers. Acting in direct
support of the infantry of the 32nd Rifle Corps, 5th Shock
Army, he and his IS platoon were among the first to
penetrate the eastern outskirts of the German capital. The
order is in very fine to excellent condition, a beautiful
piece free of significant flaws. Comes with archival research.

Order of the Patriotic War 1st cl., Type 2 Var. 2, #300798,
with a document (order booklet), posthumously awarded on 31
August 1944 to commander of a T-34 tank platoon. He was
killed in action the day before while attempting to
break out of an encirclement near the city of Tartu in
southeastern Estonia. In the preceding days, he showed
outstanding valor and leadership in combat; in just a single
day, his tank destroyed three German artillery pieces, two
mortars, a motor vehicle and up to 20 enemy soldiers. The order
was issued long after the war, in 1966, apparently to give for
safekeeping to a close relative - probably the widow - of the
deceased soldier. Both the order and order booklet are in near
mint condition. Comes with a copy of the award commendation and
award decree from the Russian military archives.
