Dinamo Membership Badge.

Here's a Dynamo badge I just got that the seller said is Romanian, but I don't know for sure. The red color instead of the blue is the only real difference from the Soviet ones I have. It's about 1.5x1cm - a tiny little thing.

Phil,

The flag badge you posted about three posts ago is from Dynamo Bucharest, indeed Romanian. There are other designs from other cities- the one that primarily comes to mind is Brasov. And yes, the Romanian Dynamo was, as with the USSR and East Germany, tied to the security end of things. In this case, the Securitate.

Greg, I am glad I finally know that it is what the seller said it was. Not much money on the line for it probably because not everyone knows that Dynamo (or Dinamo) was the KGB/MVD brainchild. Even those that know, might have overlooked this one because of the colors (not blue). Thanks.:thumbsup
