I’m shoving the souvenir, produced with Moscow souvenir factory. You can read it as a fake. Yes, you are right. No enamel, different metal and stamp.

Re: Submarine Badge

Hola amigo!

Nice homemade badge! Definitely post-WW2. You can tell by the nuclear powered look to the sub design.

That would be my guess. Perhaps "theater-made" is a better description? :)

I don't really think so. It might not even be actually Soviet.

Re: Submarine Badge

Ruiz,

That is definitely not an official issue; at best, it is a home-made copy.

Re: Submarine Badge

Agree with Lapa, such a badge had never existed in Soviet Navy.

Re: Need opinion on sub badge

I would take an edjucated guess and say post 1979 and possibly authentic.
