Order Of Honour.

Good morning Gentlemen
I was wondering, what do you think about the new Order of Honour?

More pictures..
I apologize for the concealment
but the person who was awarded with this Order is still alive

The build- quality is a little disappointing. Why did the cast the metal and not struck it? Do you know the kind of metal it is made of?

The Order is struck from silver and covered with enamels, it is shaped as a 42 mm in diameter octagonal cross enamelled in blue on its obverse except for a 2 mm wide band along its entire outer edge which remains bare silver. The obverse bears a white enamelled central medallion bordered by a silver laurel wreath, the medallion bears the silver state symbol of the Russian Federation. On the otherwise plain reverse, two rivets and the award serial number at the bottom.

Thank you very much for this comprehensive answer.
The reverse looked so sandy that I thought this would be cast.
