Is it normal that a voenkomat medal has the serifs of the consecutive K and Y at different height like the older variations? To understand what I mean, look at this detail in the other 2 Voenkomats and in the Caucasus (which is a soldered ring type) and you'll notice that the "KY" on the polar is similar to the one on the caucasus medal.
Actually, after seeing the bigger pictures I believe it is a regular voenkomat. The latest version has similar color to 1988 anniversary medal. It does not have typical yellow gold coating.
