Where did the "CCCP", that you can see on the reverse, go?

Alfred,

I believe enamel on the star is not original, and some white enamel was also replaced, but the badge is genuine.

Thanks Alexei,

the price for the piece is ~200 $.
Not a bargain or the sale of the Century. :(

Voronshilov horse rider badge

Hello,

what do you think about this rare Voronshilov horse rider badge?
To me the edges of the tip of the screwpost looks very sharp and brand new.

regards and thanks
Andreas

Andreas,

It is brand new, and the fake patina is so obvious. Oh, even the screwplate is fake.

Andreas, Alexei,

These (and the rest of the series it seems) can currently be purchased at the St Peterburg Mint shop for about 6~7 euros each.
