Damaged, Repair, Clean, Preserve Soviet Awards And Documents.

New World,

I can't really say anything about this particular piece. It could just be a home made repair to replace a missing pin. Other foreign awards do get modified out of necessity, when owners can't find proper replacement parts, or for practical reasons, like to avoid sewing a medal on to the tunic, etc.
