As we all know, some medals have a stamped LMD on the reverse side of the ring. However, on the left picture you can see the BAM medal with the stamp on the FRONT side of the medal!

To much vodka in Monetny Dvor?
The wrong die?
The wrong metal?
No enamel?
No mint mark?
Double strike?

A major mint mistake was made with the medal for defence of Kiev. instead the standard back:

someone was totally wrong, and put the die for the medal "for capture of Vienna":
