Doc, this is a membership badge of the KOMSOMOL. It?s very common available. It?s one of the last versions of the badge. 1970?s or 80?s. best regards Andreas

A few days ago I sold a Lenin (last version) for 1.900 Euro. best regards Andreas

Hi Filip, silver ones are around 80 to 120 Euro?s and non silver one are around 10 Euro?s. If you want a non silver one on ebay are a lot of them. best regards Andreas

Hi Paul, this is the military university graduation badge. Till 1957 there were shields with names and art of education of the academy on the badge. After that shields were dropped. The badge is for all university subjects equal. So you need this style of badge. For the 70?s you need one without shield. These badges exist in silver (expensive) and cheap non silver. Some collectors belief, that all non silver badges are fakes. There is a log discussion here on the forum. Attached is a medical badge from the navy branch, and one without shield. best regards Andreas

and here is the 67th Army. regards Andreas

Junior Lieutenant Bogachev G.V., being in battle arrays since January 03 to January 15, 1943 during the period of 330th rifle regiment attack at Shlisselburg under the enemy?s continuous fire provided advance of his infantry.

Is this the unit he served? 148th Rifle Brigade ? Than the action took place at the western front. 20th Army best regards Andreas

Rick, a friend of mine bought this piece a few month ago. And we had the same thoughts as you. Why to make a detailed copy that nobody fools, for a relative cheap item. It looks like the brass is struck and not casted. We came to no conclusion. But may be it is a private made wearing copy of a veteran for the second suit. best regards Andreas
