I like it, but I am no expert in these badges.

:thumbsup It has all the right things in the right places, including the stamped text that was only visible on the reverse because this one, like many, many other 50th KGB badges started out its life as an Honored Security Service Member badge.

A couple of closeups of the ribbons (taken at perpendicular angles) and of the MMD mark area would be enough to give it a 100%, but for now I'll say 95%.

See: http://soviet-awards.com/forum/sovie...0-60-70-a.html for indepth discussion of what characteristics this and the other two KGB anniversary badges have.
