Badge "For Merit In Medical-Sanitary Service".

Recently came by these badges- "For Merit in Medical/Sanitation Work". Both are pin-backed bronze. The RPR (pre 1965) is not numbered while the RSR (post 1965) is... this is the reverse of what I have come to expect with Romanian items. As I was shooting in low light due to our recent weather, there is some camera shake- I've tried to correct as best I can. First, the RPR version. Note the "strawberry" finish in the red areas. Next, the RSR version front. This version is a two-piece (the snake and cup is a separate piece). The third image is the back of the RSR badge.
