Unknown USSR table medal.

[Duncan]

Hello, does anyone out there recognise this table medal at all? The guy I bought it off said it was something to to with the Urals and service during WW2. Also was the writing might say? I've searched the Internet but couldn't see anything similar?

Thanks all,

Duncan.
