Highest numbered Red Star?
Does anyone know the highest numbered Order of the Red Star that was actually (verifiably - documented) awarded?
Thanks --Dave |

Taz: Keep in mind that that's the effect of 30+ years of cleaning by a proud veteran.
ibaya: That was Dave's set. You probably saw it on eBay when Dave was selling it. Dave: You're looking at roughly 3,8XX,XXX They were still awarding late RS in 2004! Rusty.

Cleber,
Impossible to see the S/N from these pictures... :eek: Why don't you try to post scans, rather than pictures as I suggested? The quality is much better! Dolf |

Cleber,
Yes, Danny is right, with that S/N your Red Star should be of the most recent Type 2, semi to full flared edges, according to Paul Mc Daniel. Dolf |

Hi,
i just wan't to add some photos of Red Star type 6 var.5 i have bought. It has nice concave reverse and i was searching this variation to my collection long time. I think it's interesting to see for the other collectors also. Regards, Lauri |

Riveted Red Star revealed
Have you ever wondered what's underneath the horse shoe on the Red Star?
I found these pictures and believe they can be educational! Enjoy, Rusty.

And the answer is (drumroll) ... nothing! :)
Interesting pictures! But the removal of the horseshoe must have ruined the order, or? How is the horseshoe fastened on later issues? Soldering? |
