Description: Soviet Russian USSR Documented Order of Nevsky to REGIMENT Type 3. Serial number: 38956. Official Regimental Unit Award. Comes with original temporary certificate and original receipt of temporary certificate confirming this order to be awarded to the 776th Separate Automobile "Order of Red Star" Battalion, by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Council of the USSR. Date of decree is June 11, 1945. Award number is specified on both documents! Not a lot is known about 776th Battalion. According to available sources, its first appearance was on the Bryansk front in January, 1942. After that, apparently due to heavy losses, it was formed again between Feb. 1942 - March 1943, and again between Feb. 1944 - May 1945. Last appearance in combat was during battle of Berlin, where it is listed as part of units of the 1st Belorussian front. We could not find any actual documents pertaining to this particular awarding, but we can speculate that this order of Nevsky was most likely awarded for the Berlin operation. Extremely rare documented UNIT AWARD. Flawless enamels, with most of the gold plating still visible under even gray patina. Extremely rare and elusive in private hands!
