Art,

I believe it's a small and slightly curved mintmark variation. Also the number is too high for the large mintmark.

ooops

My mistake, you are correct Alexei, the highest number for the large curved MONDVOR is 7,821. This is the small, slightly curved mintmark, with highest number being 10,428.

Alexei,

Do you have the rest of this group? If so, could you post a picture? Looks really interesting.

All the best,

Doug

Gentlemen,

The name is Portnov, Lev Pavlovich. I have received only this documented Red Star, and have just sold it. Now my supplier informs me that he is sending me another dozen of items belonging to him. Makes me so mad!

Sergey,

I think most of them were awarded in 1939-1940.
