Oddly enough, that is not enamel-- it is PAINT. :cool:

Too bad for future research purposes-- no Soviet-style serial number!!!!

Here is a pic of the reverse showing the Cuban coat of arms.
This Order is a female award and is conferred to Cuban female citizens for merit deserved for their undisputed fidelity to the revolutionary and internationalist ideals and extraordinary activity in creative work, defense and research, as well as to foreign female citizens who distinguish themselves in defense of revolutionary ideals, anti-imperialist struggle and for the liberation and independence of the people, or whose labor in any field significantly contributes to the importance of their nation and whose solidarity spirit has crossed international boundaries.

Two different variations of the reverse
