Red Star.

[Alfred]

Hi Marc, no sadly not. It came from a dealer who specialises in British cap badges. He was really out of his depth with Soviet items. He mentioned that came in a British Veterans lot and that was the only reason he had it. We got chatting and he recalled he recognised me as first buying from him 30 years ago, (!) so I think this is why I got it a such a good price.

Many dealers over here in the UK are ignorant when it comes to Soviet OMD's. So prices can be a little wild at times.

Cheers, Ade.

The s/n 1.760.066 should be awarded in early 1945. This Red Star cries for research.
