Made-Up Cap For Tourists.
Hi all:
I'm new to this forum. I've just inherited this side cap with a bunch of metal badges and two cloth badges (on the opposite) side. I would like help with identifying the badges, their age/era and value. If you can help translate (into English) the stamp/markings on the inside of the cap I would appreciate it. THANKS IN ADVANCE. |

Re: HELP identify current RUSSIAN metal and cloth badges
It's a made up tourist piece. These usually sell for $5-$10 and are an extremely common sight. The items on it are unissued stock that has absolute minimal value as individual items so are re-purposed as a talking point for tourists to take home.

Re: Made-Up Cap For Tourists.
Welcome. It appears your cap was made in 1984 in a Ukrainian SSR factory.
