Tal Inbar · 05-08-2002, 06:06 AM

We all know this medal. But - is that a medal made by the USSR? Soviet Republic of Ukriane?

Do you know how many have been awaded? Any Variations? Rarity?

Any information will be helpfull.

Issued by the Soviet Union's government. As far as I know, there are no variations, but I cannot guarantee that 100%.

Tal,

No variations I'm aware of. Fairly common award. With book I'd pay 10-15 USD. Around the same rarity as the International Soldier medal.

According to the booklet "Doblest', Otlitaya b Metall" Pt 2, it was established by the USSR State Committee on Labor and Social issues on 14 May 1990. The text of the decree identifies it as a badge "znak", rather than a medal. The proper name of the badge is "Pariticipant in the Liquadation of effects of the accident at the ChAES (Chernobyl nuclear power plant)".

I have the same item, but with a five point suspension ribbon. It was sold to me as another Umalatova award. What can you tell me about it?

Chernobyl and Soldier-Internationalist are legally badges and not medals.

Hello,

I found this document on E, would this be the correct document for this badge?

Yes, it is.

Keith,

I might add that issued documents are much harder to find, and this one is an unusual hard cover variation.

I hate to get picky. But where does it refer to the badge? It seems that this document is for participating in the clean-up but is not directly related to the/any badge. I have a similar document awarded for participating in the clean-up of Stalingrad. There was never any badge associated with that one.
