MOOP RSFSR Graduation Badge - deValcourt - 04-10-2010
I just found this one and it reminded me that displaying these is tricky. Since the only discernible difference is on the reverse, I suppose a same-scale color photo of the reverse would be best next to the actual badge. As far as I know there are only four types of this "higher school" badge ("МВД РСФСР," "МВД УССР," "МООП РСФСР" and only "Высшая Школа") and only this "MOOP" badge does not have the Leningrad 'LMD' mint mark on it. For this reason I have no idea about the screwnut, but I think it is not original. It may well be a fake, and I won't know for sure until I get it (and maybe not even then) but what little I paid for it makes it worth the trouble.:thumbsup
