Order of the Patriotic war 1st class

[Richard]

I was wondering if anyone has a picture of the front and back of this order that is known as a 1985 reissue? I have one that doesn't look like any that I have seen posted in prior threads that I am wondering if it is a fake or a reissue. The engraved number is 2,499,652, maker's mark is at the top of the reverse and is in relief rather than incuse. It appears to be a one piece construction with what I think is a pretty poor enamel job on the obverse. I will try to get some pics to that a better determination could be made.

i bet as well it has a line underneath the number to! it sounds like a 85 reissue!

With that number it could be the 1985 second class.

Post a pic and we'll go from there!

Richard ... take a look at my two and compare to yours:

Patrick, there is a line under the number. Darrell, it is exactly like the ones you posted with 2 exceptions:
1. there is no plate at the base of the screw post
2. the sickle does not have the detailed appearance that your's does.

I'll try to get some scans this weekend to see if I can post them. Have to work tomorrow and Sunday it is our son's 2nd birthday so time will be tight. Thanks for the help!
