Order of the Sacred Treasure 5th or 6th Class

[Rommel1933]

Hello all.. This is an Order of the Sacred Treasure. I believe this is the 6th class. Anyone know much about the dimensions. The one page I found said this should be 40mm. Mine measures about 42.5mm at widest point...

Thank you, Scott

Hi Scott

Looks like 5th class from 1930-1944 period of time (more likely 30s).
It should be 46 mm by order regulation - but in practice it is a little smaller. Usually 43,5-44,5 mm. But yours 42,5 mm. Are you sure in your measurements?

Nick,

I took out of case plastic case and put against ruler. I believe you are 100% correct. It looks to be exactly 43.5!

Thank you for the info... I dont see a lot of these out there. What do you feel a fair value for this is?

Thank you,

Fair? There is no such thing in phaleristic world
In this condition and without case I would say no more than 50-60...
I think you should wait a litle bit and you'll a get a nice cased specimen for less than 150 texas rubles ... Even in eBay...
But if you sell this piece, then try to get 100

Cheers,
Nick

Thank you Nick, I better save my Texas Rubles.. why do you say if I wait a little bit? You suspect prices may come down?

What can I say??? I am a phaleristic type of guy...

Thank you, Scott

Nope.

But I think that if you'll wait long enough, than you will see cased 5th classes floating by the river (side by side with the bodies of your enemies)...
