Alexei, Christophe,

This Personal Courage looks somewhat familiar, could it be from the same dealer in Berlin?

Awarded to Vasilij Sergevich Korinskoj on the 24.05.1991 for Personal Bravery does this match?

Just for reference an authentic order of personal courage Var 1, unissued.

Ron,

Nice piece :)

BTW, this should help us in detecting fakes:

Yes it is, thanks to you Alexei :-)

Thanks. I have been looking for one for a long time, but there is so many fakes. It also seems to be the most controversial Order out there as to what is authentic.

This one is identical to the what Mondvor site shows, Avers and Paul's book.

Thanks to Alexei I now have one.

And a nice price too, for such a beautiful piece in such mint condition!
As most fellow members probably know, that NJ based dealer has one rated 9 of 10 by Paul McDaniel for sale, for $1.490.00...

Best,

Finally got to posting, been in my collection for years. Was lucky to grab it at what I’d consider a bargain back then. I think I have a COA from Paul somewhere
