For Long Voyage 1976 Question
I have two 1976 "For Long Voyage" (Submarine version) with completely different backs.
The first has what looks like a sunburst pattern going across it, but none of the usual star shaped mint marks. The second has the star shaped mint mark on a somewhat plain background. I acquired both of these over a decade ago (first in 2002, second in late 90's) and now am wondering which is authentic? Are they both authentic? Any help is welcome :) |

Re: For Long Voyage 1976 Question
Probably just two manufacturing variants. Pictures always help...

Re: Badge "For Long Voyage"
Both appear to be proper Soviet-period composition.

Re: Badge "For Long Voyage"
Thank you for your help!
Is there a particular source book to reference this information from or is it just experience? I only ask because when writing about militaria I am often obligated to cite sources when they are available. :) |
