28th Congress of the Communist Party of the USSR, delegate's
badge, 1990.
Gilded brass, enamel, mint marked; 21.3 mm tall measured from
the bottom of the wreath to the top "bulge" of the banner;
25.8 mm wide. Riveted 3-piece construction. Raised logo of the
Leningrad Mint on the reverse. Excellent condition.
The badge was issued exclusively to the delegates of this last
Congress of the CPSU. Its quality is excellent although just a
notch below the earlier congress badges, perhaps reflecting
the decline of the Soviet Empire.
