Tal,

These are award badges "Honored Miner". They existed in different shapes and sizes, and were made by many republics and ministries.

As shown in a previous post, was instituted in 1947 and is given for long and conscientious work.

Eddie,

Nice group indeed! The box is not original, it's from a watch.

Did they not bother with serial numbers then?

Kind Regards,

Alexei,
Yes pity about the box, but still an interesting little group. No doubt it was originaly issued in one of those plain white cardboard boxes.

Shane,

This Award doesn,t seem to have been awarded with a S/N although there is a place for the number on the back.
I,m also wondering why that is, maybe Medals were only issued to Soviet Miners with S/N,s.

Eddie.

What year this badge can possibly be?
I am looking for Honored Miner badge from 1955 period. Would this badge work?
I have doubts about the screw plate. Is it original?

Alfred,

What you have is an earlier piece. Later ones were cheaper made, but still had soldered screwposts and serial numbers.
