Deputy Of The Supreme Soviet Of The Abkhaz ASSR Badge.

Abkhazia CEK badges 1.4, 1.5, and 1.6

For 1.4 on badge shown here, enamel seems to cover period after first "C" in ASSPA around star, which is not the case for badge in the book. That would indicate there is more than one badge?

Badge 1.5 here "may" be the badge in the book. There is a minor scratch where the handle of the hammer crosses the blade of the sickle which shows in the picture in the book. There is a minor enamel scratch at approx 10 o'clock from the a' on the second line which also shows in the book. But the ball on the staff looks different.

The difference between 1.5 and 1.6 shown from the obverse is ball on the staff versus rounded top. Most of the differences are like Ukraine 2.1 and 2.2 (where the diffence is the material for the screw on the reverse). Similarly, here 1.6 has polished reverse and what appears to be a silver screw, while 1.5 has rough reverse like on red Tuva badge TAP from the 1940's and bronze/brass screw.
