The HIGHEST Serial Number you have

Hello all

I would like to see what is the HIGHEST S/N orders and medals you have in your collections.

I would like to see S/N that are HIGHER than those in PMD or other books.

Thanks!!!!


Tal

Both with award documents:

-Red Star - 3835690 (awarded 28 April 1992, for actions in January 1991!)

-Glory 3rd - 791431 (awarded 3 April 1992) PMD says that they were awarded with numbers up through 900,000, but I have yet to see one, and it seems strange that since they were being awarded by the same place, instead of by individual units as during WW2, there would be a 200,000 range in serial numbers. (Anyone else ever seen one with a 800-900,000 range s/n?)

Re: The HIGHEST Serial Number you have

Wait, hold the presses, Order of the Red Star, #3672543, awarded to Junior Lieutenant Aleksandr M. Stolyarenko , a graduate of the Charkow Tank School (October, 1942). He was a tank commander in 30th Guards Tank Brigade. He was heavily wounded near Leningrad on February 12th, 1943, and was honorably discharged October 20th, 1943. He received his Red Star in 1970.
