And this is how the saga of my 20 yrs good service KGB medal in silver ended. I will omit the 'juicy bits' where the dealer and I are engaged in mutual accusations and will only post an extract from the dealer's reply. And please do not ask me the name of the dealer, this story kind of hurts.
Dealer:... Here is the answer on our issue. I did make a mistake and described medal from 1960's made in Newzilber, as medal made in 1958 in Silver. But I did quite the correct price, as my medal worse the asking price of $60. ...I am very sorry, but it leads me no choice but to state that this is our very last transaction. period.
There you go. S**t happens. I was hoping to add a silver KGB medal to my small collection, that's all.

PS I thought I was a cheerful kind of guy until I saw this in response from the dealer:
"Didn't I show you your inconfidence? No one fooled you. What happened called missdescription or misscataloging. If you are unhappy with your life, not put that stuff on a dealer, at least not on me!"
Jesus Christ! The medal is worth 60 bucks! I donate more to charity every month!
