Do the Post-91 Russian Badges Still Have Maker Markings
I was wondering if anyone know if the Badges of the Russian Federation still have maker markings (like the old Pobeda, ect). I have a number of Russian qualification badges, soldier sportsman badges, and such yet none of them seem to have any sort of maker markings?
Is this normal? Are these badges real? They match the originals in all physical specifications, but do not have maker marks. Any help here would be appreciated. |

Re: Do the Post-91 Russian Badges Still Have Maker Markings
Yes and no. The end of Communism lead to capitalism which also lead the various awards being made by the company offering the best deal. There are many of awards made by the state mints and marked as such, many made by other national companies which may or may not be marked and then more localised makers that may or may not mark their work.
The answer is far from simple. No mark does not mean fake and a fake item may also have a fake mark on it.
