Mike - you guessed right. :thumbsupis

Hello all - Here is a DDR document that was presented to the state employee when he was involved with the FDJ. The document was presented to him on 23 july 1950 for good knowledge in bronze.

I love these old docs. Was this badge initially heavier or better quality than the later ones?

Hello desantnik - I agree with you about this and other older documents from the late 1940s through the 1960s, They have more character.

These older badges in most cases they were stamped pressed like some of the others shown on this forum. http://soviet-awards.com/forum/soviet-bl...971-a.html. Even this badge that was dated in 1971. However the older badges have an interesting quality to them.
