According to ”Uralsky Fotokatalog…” nr.1 the variant of the Tadjik SSR – BFK was made in 30 000 pieces. Compare this to the more common UzSSR – BFK that was made in 170 138 pieces. Both were made at the Leningrad mint. One thing that I foud odd was the reverse on the Tadjik. It is what order collectors call ”mirror reverse”. But this one in the book has the same mirror look as the Uz – badge. So the words ”Tadjik SSR” must have been added on top of the "UzSSR" on a Uz -badge.
