BalkanCollector Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Can someone identify this hat badge?
Egorka Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 This is MVD parade cocade (internal affairs or Militia). I think 70s-80s period. I remember them from my childhood.
BalkanCollector Posted November 19, 2016 Author Posted November 19, 2016 Thank you very much for the quick reply. My grandpa went on a few business trips to Soviet Union as an officer of Yugoslav People's Army in that period so it is possible that he got it there.
Egorka Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Always at your service! I have just correct myself a bit. It is not a parade, but everyday model.
BalkanCollector Posted November 20, 2016 Author Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) Ah yes, one more thing! Do you know what does "13" mean on the back of the cockade? I've found some on ebay that don't have the number on the back. Edited November 20, 2016 by BalkanCollector
Egorka Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Don't know. I think thise are technological markings. Could mean a batch or a factory. Don't think they make much difference for price.
Greg Collins Posted November 23, 2016 Posted November 23, 2016 The star-like mint mark in the third image of the first post indicates it was made by the Pobeda factory.
