Hello,
sad news indeed...
I knew that some time ago a book was published Russia with a list of stolen Soviet orders and their serial numbers. Is this book available?
Best wishes,
Elmar Lang

If anyone can find serial number information, post it here. I will post the article along with the serial number info in the forsale sections as a sticky post (always stays at top of thread) and we can also post it in the SND.
My gut feeling is they are more than likely being melted down..

I don't think so, they only stole the more expensive ones. Silver is silver...

Or a theft-to-order by a neo-Russian collector baron?
