For Personal Courage.

[Christophe]

I have bought this Order for Personal Courage SN 2215, in Berlin, in 2000. Bought to a reputable dealer, I have no concern (a priori, and except if any other evidence from the Forum members) about its authenticity.
Moreover, a careful checking shows that all details seem correct as well as the enamel colour.

What I am wondering about is the following point :
I initially planned to buy an Order for Personal Courage with its associated document. What I have been proposed is this Order SN 2215, with its box and an un-issued booklet. I took the opportunity to buy this not so usually available award.

The box as well as the Order show some wear / use.
The booklet is totally new.

Logically, it looks like an un-issued order, one of the 8000 orders made.
But, could it be an issued one, separated from its associated and issued booklet ?

Has anyone any idea on this point, with regard to its SN ? Has a close SN already be found as an issued - with certainty - award ?

All comments are welcome.

In advance, many thanks.

Ch.
