Order of Victory
Some time ago, i heard a story that one of the original Order of victory was sold at a auction house. If i remember correctly, it was Eisenhowers OoV. Could be just a urban legend?
If not it would be cool to know what the price was and who bought it? Best regards Martin Norway |

Hello Martin,
Welcome aboard. The Eisenhower Order of Victory was still in his childhood home in Kansas about 6 months ago when I visited there to see this piece. Any stories of this Order of Victory being sold are just rumors. Bryan |

Ok, thanks for both your welcome and your reply.
I picked up the story on a collectors market in Krakow, Poland 5-6 years ago. Could it be someone else's? Does also anyone knows were to find a good reproduction, and also what to expect moneytwise? Best regards Martin Norway |

Martin,
Welcome to the forum. Bryan is correct, the Eisenhower Order of Victory is still at the Eisenhower Library in Abilene, Kansas. Just a suggestion, we had a very long discussion some time ago on The Order of Victory, try searching for the words "Order of Victory" I think we even discussed one of these awards being auctioned.. Perhaps this is where you are getting the information from. Regarding a nice copy, I think Alexei and/or Ed might be able to help. You can PM them or email them. Art Quote:

Given the fact that a genuine order of victory is most likely a dream for us (unless we plan a dare assault on Russia's state history museum or, say, the Gohran), I would like your help in categorise the replicas of this order.
The price range is $400+ - $2,000, depending on quality, and at least on ebay it is rarely offered - I saw it offered about ONCE A YEAR. Please help - if you have one of the copies, please tell us about it. (My fellow moderators - feel FREE to edit my posts to incorporate explanations and remarks. I'll do the same.)

Note that the "CCCP" in this one is silver coloured, as it should be:
This copy comes with a nice box: Also included - ribbon for the order:
