I bought this order and I've read the "red bible" and it says it is a type 5 variation 1. So this variation was introduced in 1943 after the new regulations... This is the highest piece in my collection now and I'm really proud of it and I'm also courious about some things.
My first question is, when was my piece sn. 168972 manufactured, in ww2 or later?
My second question is, is this order worth researching? It was probably awarded in 1951 or something like that and it's probably a long service award. An officer with a 25 years carrer could have seen and do some interesting stuff?
So what do you guys think? Thanks for any help.
