*CLICK ON THUMBNAIL OR ITEM NAME TO VIEW FULL DESCRIPTION AND PHOTOS

Order of Nakhimov, 2nd cl., #162, bestowed in August 1945 upon a submarine officer of the Black Sea Fleet as retroactive award for his submarine service in 1941-42. At that time, the recipient was deputy political commander of the 1st Sevastopol Submarine Brigade, Black Sea Fleet, and took part in sinking of two enemy vessels (one of which was the infamous Romanian ship Struma carrying Jewish refugees.) He also distinguished himself while serving in the same capacity in the defense of Sevastopol and Novorossiysk.

With just 471 ever bestowed, the Order of Nakhimov 2nd cl. is one of the hardest to find Soviet awards - and also one of the most beautiful. Only 28 of them were issued to submariners. This extraordinary piece is in very fine condition. Comes with a copy of the award recommendation and wartime service record.

$49,000.00

Order of Alexander Nevsky, Type 2 (riveted), #9443, July 1944 issue to a submachine gun platoon commander, 21st Army, Leningrad Front, for capturing a fortified height and a small Finnish settlement near Vyborg without losses to his platoon. KIA on the Oder River near Opeln & posthumously awarded with the Order of the Patriotic War, 2nd cl., in May 1945. VF/EXC condition, extremely uncommon for a Type 2. Comes with archival research.
$4,500.00

Order for Service to the Homeland in the Soviet Armed Forces, 3rd cl., #44141, with Award Document (Order Booklet), 1981 issue to AF Major, possibly for the war in Afghanistan. Comes with a 1987 Honorary Certificate hand-signed by Marshal Yefremov, Chief of Soviet Air Force. EXC condition.
$875.00

Order for Service to the Homeland in the Soviet Armed Forces, 3rd cl., #114634, with Award Document, awarded in 1988 to Chief of Electronic Warfare of a Fighter Bomber Regiment stationed in Belorussia (later, in East Germany). The order booklet is a very interesting 1992 issue, a Soviet leftover which still shows Gorbachev's facsimile. EXC condition. Comes w. archival research.
$795.00
