Can someone identify this badge and tell me about it?
Here is a badge I have been offered for $60. Can anyone tell me about it and if it is worth the asking price? Is it original, copy or what?

Jeff:
I believe it is a Red Guardsman and Red Partisan badge for the year 1932. To commemmorate the 15th anniversary of participants in the October Revolution. |

ok, so knowing what it is, I looked it up on a collector's site and realized after about 1 second it was a sloppy fake.

Jeff,
An original wouldn't cost anywhere near $60, if you get my drift. I believe that this badge has already been discussed in another thread. Marc |
