Hello,
There were five different types of Soviet in Estonia:
Külanõukogu - Village Soviet
Linnanõukogu - City Soviet
Alevinõukogu - Borough Soviet
Rajooninõukogu - Regional Soviet
ülemnõukogu - Supreme Soviet
The first four I believe all have large and small variations, older ones are brass and hot enamel, newer ones are cold enamel and look weak. Küla is the easiest, then Linna, Rajooni, and Alevi is the most difficult from my experience. The first three would come and go during ESSR, Rajooni- is almost the same as the current counties (maakond) in Estonia, and there was always the same ülemnõukogu.
