CHASEUSA11B Posted February 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted February 2, 2021 Hello all, I just acquired this Silver Star on Facebook and I was hoping for some opinions to confirm it looks correct. it is numbered but a little difficult to make out. I believe it’s 18935- would that make it a WW2 example? Thanks for any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacksmith Posted February 2, 2021 Share #3 Posted February 2, 2021 Yes, looks like “18935” on a WWII BB&B star. There is a number list here on the forum, which should tell you if it’s identifiable to the recipient based on GO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHASEUSA11B Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share #4 Posted February 2, 2021 Thanks! I found the list. Doesn’t appear to be on there. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swag Posted February 2, 2021 Share #5 Posted February 2, 2021 Damn, so close. 18932 is on the list.Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermanus Posted February 2, 2021 Share #6 Posted February 2, 2021 This star is manufactured pre-WW2. The fact that it is not engraved with a name indicates that it is probably issued in WW2. The Black box is a second indication to this. Regards Herman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
