Here is my very first Glory 3rd. I purchased this "only Soviet award in the shop" from the now closed Medal shop in York around 3 years ago. I haggled and went home happy. It may not be in the best condition but it does seem very honest to me.
I would be interested in researching if I were informed (privately) of the very best price on research.
