Medal for Distinction in Guarding the State Border of the RSFSR
This medal was re-instituted March 2, 1992 as an award of Russian Federation. This design only lasted 2 years after which a new one was instituted in 1994.
The only difference between this medal and the Soviet one is the lack of CCCP on the lower part of the reverse.

This new acquisition is odd, it has a different back with what looks like a KGB style shield and sword as well as “LMD” mint mark. Has anyone seen any of these before? |

Re: Medal "For Distinction In Protection Of The State Borders".
I haven't seen one. Maybe a post-Soviet transition(?) or more likely a fantasy piece.

Re: Medal "For Distinction In Protection Of The State Borders".
Paul,
I have to agree with you. Upon receipt of the medal, the weight seems too light and I think it is a fantasy piece. Interesting, but if dubious origin. Cheers, Tuka |

Re: Medal "For Distinction In Protection Of The State Borders".
I'm curious - does it appear to be molded or struck? How is the LMD on the suspension ring applied?
