New World,

It looks very authentic to me, but to be certain I will need to know the exact weight and measurements. BTW, I have a Hero Star # 7326.

Gold Star "Hero Of The Soviet Union".

This one is offered for sale with COA from PMD.

Have you saw such wear on a star?

I know the seller, i think he's perfectly reliable, as of PMD COA; but it is true that this photo shows an impressive using (?); the edges are smoothened, and the ring...With my little (very) experience and the advices of PMD book I wouldn't dare buy it. Those who had the chance to travel and see veterans, did you believe the honourable soviet grandpas wore their decos such used, without cleaning? (evident for common medal, but for a prestigious HSU?

Tal,

Makes me wonder is the suspension was replaced, it looks too brand new compared with the Star. Also looks like the link was cut.

I have a question though...

How would a man get a suspension like this?
Was it something that was given with the second star?

I assume that this was mint made!?!

Thanks,

Rusty.
