Excellence in Socialist Competition on the Railways, screw
back version, #50578, circa late 1950s - early 60s.
Gilded and chrome-plated brass, enamels; 38.8 x 26.5 mm.
Relief reverse variation with pin back attachment. Shows
electric locomotive pulling a train across a truss bridge,
with railroad emblem of crossed hammer and wrench shown
below.
Stamped serial number to the reverse. Unlike vast majority
of
these badges, this piece features screw back rather than pin
attachment.
Outstanding, excellent condition. The enamel is perfect,
showing no wear or flaking whatsoever. Fragile original
finish
is completely intact. The screw post is full length, over
9.5
mm, and comes with a contemporary Pobeda Factory screw plate
which is probably original to the badge.
