Badge "60 Years Of Lubjanke Headquarters".
I got this one in a few days agao and giving it a good looking over I decided a few things:
1. great badge and well made (Moscow Mint circular mark practically hiddend from view - why? - Picture 3) 2. According to the dates (1920-1980) that only leaves the MVD which was at least a part of all of the internal AND external units in the early years. But there is a shield, sword on top, and a star on top of the blade, and in the star an h&s - normally reserved only for the KGB. (picture 2) Lacking any other indicators other than the ones that suggest the motif is the standard long-sworded "Criminal Police" symbol (pictured in the next post), Perhaps, it is a badge to represent all of the branches of security from the state level (Cheka-KGB) to the (NKVD-MVD) to the militsias all under one pin. Of course this does not seem likely, but who knows? ...to be continued...
