Thanks Art. :thumbsup It's handpainted, looks better in person. Unfortunately I bought it from someone who bought in on Arbat in the early 90s. It came with a 1985 GPW-II. Whatever it is, it's been a cool enhancement to the collection. I put different awards into it, right now it's this late RS. Thanks for the tip on artwork too, I perused my Badges/Znachki book by Paul, indeed many similarities.
