Order "Red Star".

I realize that this is probably a long shot, but does any member own any of the classes of the Order of the Red Star of Bokhara NSR? Could you post a photo?

Sergey,
I don't own one, these are from Kuchenko's "Orders of the Soviet Republics". I apologize for the color. The image quality in the book is not the best.

Next..note, one is an earlier type, but this and the above are both 1c's.

Bryan,

Kutsenko writes that in 1921, there were two orders created for the Bukhara People's Soviet Republic (BPSR) a gold-plated silver 1st class, and a pure silver 2nd class. Unfortunately he doesn't give exact numbers of each awarding. The book mentions that the Orders of Bukhara PSR were conferred about 10 times on military units-cavalry and infantry regiments of the Bukhara Red Army, thus the total number of those awarded with the Order of all 3 classes equals to a minimum of 600 people. His book contains entries for 315 separate people. The english translation is rather sketchy. If someone wants to translate the Russian to English, I can scan the pages of text ( about 6 pages ) and email it to them if they promise to post a full translation here.

Also from the Central Museum of the Armed Forces.

Originally was pinback (same as 1st class), then was changed to screwback.
