Medal "For The Rescue Of The Drowning".

Since we're in a PMR kind of mood today - for your viewing pleasure from a friend in Moldova.

This is notable in that the 2004 book on these awards published by the "Presidential Administration" depicts a RUSSIAN lifesaving medal - ROSSIYA is clearly evident on the reverse.

This medal is either post 2004 or the book got it wrong.

Details seems to be missing from the obverse - the model may have been a straight casting from a Soviet/Russian medal, but it does not seem to be Moscow or St. Pete mint manufacture.
