I think the badge is a fake.
I remember that this topic was already discussed an Alexei posted a reverse picture of a real one somewhere here. I think these badges were made in the early 90´s after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Last edited by CtahhR; 09-21-2012 at 04:32 PM. |

Alfred is right, a lot of them were made in the early 90s for export. Strictly speaking it's not a fake, but rather a collectors' copy.

Well, another item in the "fake bin"... at least it is not an important item or a valuable one. |
