Multiple Awards of Soviet Orders - Doug - 01-28-2003
Because I'm thinking about buying a group containing three Valor Medals, I started wondering about what you guys have seen concerning multiple awards of the same order (and class) to an individual. For example, I have a group with four Red Stars in it. I've never seen a group with more than that but it must have happened.
To put my random thoughts into a question, what is the highest number of the following orders awarded to a single individual that you have information on:
Lenin
October Revolution
Suvorov (by class)
Kutuzov (by class)
Khmelnitsky (by class)
Nevsky (did anyone get more than one?)
Patriotic War (by class)
Red Star
Valor Medal
Combat Service Medal
Does anyone, besides me, have an interest in this topic? Do you think a high number of the same order adds to the rarity of a group?
All the best,
Doug
