Medal "For The Defence Of The Soviet Transarctic".

[CtahhR]

Here's one that slipped through the cracks and managed not to get posted until now. Tidy original connecting ring, two piece kolodka and well used ribbon.

At some point it has had a copper wash over the brass (mainly visible on the rear) which seems strange as usually things are made Golden or Silver. Someone may have been excited whilst cleaning/polishing and picked up the wrong liquid.

I'd really like to see one of these Medals in a group where the recipient received the LVOG and not military variation.
