They also look new (no wear and tear like you'd suspect from something made at least before the fal of the USSR)
The KGB badge is poorly made and fell apart.

I would like to learn more so I have a few questions comrads.

How real do they look?
How can you tell it's fake (I can only assume)
How legal is it have a KGB ID and badge
How legal is it to have a FSB ID and badge
How complete are there?

Sorry if this wrong place. I'm new. I read a lot of pages, but English not always so good. Please accept apologize if I made mistake.

I really just want to know as much info as I can about these items. Please help me.

I have seen a smaller group and the medals definately belong to the recipient mentioned in the award booklet due to the given information of the central archives in Moskva; the official stamp and award date is also ok (1944) - but the order booklet is written in ... pen - stye and red ink !?

Does anybody know, when the PEN was invented in the USSR / the USSR`s armed forces or is it just possible that the booklet was created much later, when pens became more common :confused:

Thanks a lot !!!]]>

It's written in ukrainian and dated 1928. I suppose it is for active participation in the russian revolution or the civil war. Or s it even an early order/badge booklet?
What do you think?

what do you think about this round medal?

It is not magnetic, it looks like it is made out of cast iron.
The diametre is 5 cm and thickness is 5 mm.

Could this be a tool for making rubber stamps?
