Dolf,
You really seem to like your Sub Badges and pins so I can maybe recommend this book.
I haven't got a copy but this must be a great help to you if you can get a copy.
Please see this thread:

On the left side of your pic are Top to Bottom:

Delta

Typhoon (Akula) Typhoon class PLARB - Nuclear Powered Ballistic Missile Submarine

Delta IV - BDRM Del'fin (Delta IV class) PLARB - Nuclear Powered Ballistic Missile Submarine

On the right side of your pic are Top to Bottom:

SS-406 Typhoon

SS-251 Delta

SS-007 Yankee Type 1 ; 4th Squadron it is said that it was the first Sub to visit the UK.

These badges are Post-Soviet and I have seen them on a site being sold for $ 10,00 a piece

Eddie.

Post 10 contains photos of the different types of badges issued to Surface Ship and Submarine Commanding Officers. The silver (bottom) are issued to the CO's of ships and subs; the gilt (top) are issued to commanders of groups of ships or subs (Captians 1st rank and admirals).

Thanks a lot K3.

I have a couple of variations (?) of each, either with a flat back or with a concave back. Does this means something?

Thanks.

I'm not aware of any significance to any variations in manufacture of these badges (other than gilt/silver). Maybe someone else may have some insight?

Hello,

here is a comparison of the pins of the reverse of the ship commanders badges. The ship badges are made out of "german silver".
2 backsides of original bades from a dealer side and two of most likely fakes
I think? Very cheap sold on the flea market.

here are the good one´s

bought on the flea market.
I think the pins are made out of normal screws.
