    I have had the privilege to see an original example of this extremely rare and beautiful Soviet Order. It was General Dwight D. Eisenhower's now in the Eisenhower Library and Museum, Abilene, Kansas. I also knew I would never own an original example and purchased a common and relatively inexpensive copy. It is made of base metal, has cheap glass stones which are not prong set. Later, I had the opportunity to acquire a nice silver example with jeweler set Ziconias. It is much finer detailed and even has the tiny set stones in the outside wreath of the center medallion. Here is the common copy.

    I've read somewhere the rubies and diamonds on his Order Of Victory were fake or lesser quality.. Can someone fill me on this if it's true or just hearsay?
