Moscow Metro Badges
Probally my favorite set. Got all three by paid dearly for them. Do not know it they all belong to one individual or not, but it would be nice to think that one guy earned all these badges.
Here are the front. Your feed back is greatly appreciated Dat Nguyen |

Serial numbers
The first number on all 3 badges are #2.
Can't find my scale at the moment. Recently returned from Afghanistan and I can't remember where half my stuff are located at, but I will post measurements shortly. v/r Dat |

Guys,
Just to let you know, these are currently widely available in St Petersburg, and some of the details are a little bit off. Make sure to compare them with guaranteed genuine ones (there was one recently on a well known NJ dealer's site). Marc |

Badge for building the Moscow Metro:
There are three badges dedicated for building the Moscow Metro. Short history of Moscow Metro: The first line of moscow metro was built 1935 The second line of moscow metro was built 1938 The third line of moscow metro was built 1944 You can see the dates and the line number on the badges. The badges were awarded to senior engineers, administrators and communist party bosses that supervised the construction, as well as NKVD officers that guarded the laborers. Sadly, as in these time common, moscow metro was built with slave labor. I think about 20.000 of each badge were awarded. Different badges exist. The 1935 badge with lower numbers has engraved serial numbers and different srew plates. Today moscow metro is 269,5 km long and there are 165 stations. Dayly 9 million passengers are transported. In 1931 the central comitee decide to biult a metro in moscow. Fist line 1935 work beginn : 15. Mai 1935 11,6 km long between Sokolniki and Park Kultury (red line) Second line 1938 8,5 km long between Ploschschad Swerdlowa and Sokol (green line) Third line 1944 7,1 km long between Kurskaja and Ismailowskij Park (blue line) regards Andreas |
