I recently got a 60 year anniversary badge and though the front is not worrisome, the back has me a little concerned. Does anyone have photos of the back? Should there be a screw nut like the 70th?
Thanks,
Phillip

Phillip, there are many KGB/Border Guard "60 year anniversary badges" for the service itself, different border regions, border detachments, academic institutions, etc. A picture to what you are referring to would be useful.

Sorry it took so long to get to this picture. Crazy time right now. Here are the photos:

Shouldn't there be a mint mark on the back somewhere near the bottom, right about where the wire bends up?

The second of the Border Guard anniversary/award badges was the 60th, shown below. This example was made at the Moscow Mint Yard and is marked on the lower reverse and the tightening wheel.
