That if I am not mistaken is a VOHR cap badge on a cap that I have not come across. The maker's badge is certainly Soviet but the colouring for VOHR services should be blue grey, with reed green piping. Normally officers wore a circular cockade on the front of the cap so I am assuming that this is for an NCO or conscript.
When I first started collecting, I bought a M1969 armoured or artillery parade cap and stuck on the crown was one of them badges. It bugged me for a long time as to which service this badge belonged to and eventually a freind told me is was for VOHR.

Vikingraider is correct that it is a VOKhR badge. However, the hat (black with the blue piping) appears to be for miners, mining technicians and mine railways personnel.

So either a case of the wrong badge or perhaps this is what security guards at mine sites wore.

Sorry i came as a bouble post.

But do anyone have a site where you can find miners caps?

Isn't the cap badge from Yugoslavia?

[otlichnik]

No. It is slightly similar though. Yugoslav badges are either plain stars or stars with a sort of techno-wreathing not crossed rifle like this. The Yugo cap badges are also quite thick and not stamped brass like this one.

I think understand what Bone means: the badge furiously looks like the yougoslav order of partisan star 3rd class...

[vikingraider1]

Charlet,
actually, Yugoslavian cap badges as Olitchinik said are enamelled red stars made from brass which look quite similar (only larger) than the VOHR badges and without the crossed rifles. :)
