15th Anniversary of October Revolution

What do people think of this one? The seller wants $95 for it.

Kind Regards,
Shane Cook.

I got this one for $66 back when the goods were flowing out of Russia ...

stamped serial number. mirror-reverse stamped construction with soldered backplate, dimpled screwplate with hard-to-make-out stamped lettering

Red and white enamels applied differently

still two-piece construction, but backplate conforms to the edges, neatly soldered to obverse, screwplate with loops instead of dimples and no stamping

Shane,

I think $95 is a decent price despite the enamel damage.

Did these badges have silver and plated-silver variants?

I got a photo of the rear of it. Looks somewhat different to the one ibaya posted. I quite like the one with the white enamel though, looks somewhat nicer than the red enamel version.

Kind Regards,
Shane Cook.
