Soviet Russian USSR WWII order medal researched group of 3 Bravery Medals awarded to one soldier!
Junior Sergeant Timofei Konyaev was awarded in April 1944, January 1945, and April 1945, each time for bringing artillery ammunition in his truck – under enemy fire – to guns on the front lines that were in direct fire positions, and for repairing battle damage to his vehicle and keeping it in good running order. His third award was for street fighting in Konigsberg!
The serial numbers are in the 1.0, 1.9, and 2.5 million ranges.
Condition is great, as seen in the images! Relatively good preservation of the enamel lettering.
The serial numbers of the awards are authentic and match the serial numbers shown in the archival documents, obviously! If you require confirmation in advance, please send me a message, and I will gladly provide images. Over time, I have found that redacting award serial numbers in certain listings (particularly of researched awards) has acted a simple and effective filter to sort good customers from troublesome eBay hooligans. Reasonable, rational collectors who are genuinely interested in the history represented by an award will make the effort to reach out and will quickly find that everything is in order.
Winner will be provided with archival research (12 pages - including Award Record Card and Citation-Decrees) in electronic format, unredacted, in color. Professional English translation of the Record Card and Citation-Decree excerpts is available if requested before receipt of item.
No returns. All questions in advance. I will answer all coherent, respectful inquiries to the best of my ability.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AVAILABLE only through eBay’s Global Shipping Program (GSP). With this program: once the item is delivered to the address to which eBay directs me to ship, all responsibility for final safe delivery of the item to the buyer becomes eBay’s. I am categorically not responsible for any problems that arise once the item is in eBay’s possession. Note: combined shipping is not available through the GSP. If you wish to combine shipping, you must contact me in advance to make arrangements. Buyers from any country in the exclusion list must always contact me in advance of purchase. I will not accept purchases from buyers with shipping addresses in these countries without advance notice. If you contact me, as I am requesting of you, you will likely find your purchase approved. Shipping will then be through the GSP.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS BE ADVISED!: eBay may refuse to ship your item due to international customs restrictions on items perceived to be of Russian origin.
