Marxism-Leninism University Graduate Badge. - Ed_Haynes - 02-28-2003
Herewith the badge.
(Also have a variety with lighter blue and smaller heads.)
Marxism-Leninism University Graduate Badge. - new world - 03-24-2003
UML badge with the diploma:
The badge I posted also has smaller heads, but the color of enamel is different.
What does it mean?
Best,

No source I have found seems to know the difference in the badge variations. There are three options.
1) The pessimist - many are fakes made by greedy badge companies.
2) The neutral - the design changed over time.
3) The optimist - the different badge designs refer to different schools, (day and night, Moscow and Leningrad etc.).
The truth may be a combination of all three options.

Notice, both Ed Hayes and my badges have the state seal a bit off center...
I believe mine to be genuine...
otlichnik: you bring up very interesting points!

what is this?!

Shawn,
In this case the pessimist is right, those badges are still being coined in the Baltic States. I know this for fact, but I have never asked my supplier for pictures of those fakes.

Yet another version...

Forgive me if I am stating the obvious here but would the initals not stand for ooniversitat marx lenin? I have seen the blue version for sale more so that the red version but as Nota Bene this is irelavent due to the number of fakes being produced.
