Another railway badge.

Just can't seem to identify this one. It is an "excellent ..........." Opinions please?

"Excellent Railway Traffic Serviceman", acording to my Likhitskiy. Item #145.

Thanks Chuck. Does it look authentic?

Hi Danny

I've got quite a few RR badges, including multiples of that one. It looks OK to me, and even with an old screwplate. Are you collecting RR badges now? It is an interesting field and there seem to be a lot of collectible variations.

I collect all Soviet badges, as long as they are in my price range.

How about these? Purchase is neither absolute nor pressing. Thanks.

Greg,

The first one looks OK to me. The second one, well, I don't know what to think: unusual screwpost, pretty grubby obverse.

Damn, as luck would have it, I like the second one (with the train) the most. Now, of course, comes the part where I decide whether to chance it or not; they're going for the same price (under 50 USD each). At least we're sure of half the deal. Thanks.

In my opinion, both of them are fine.
