The plastic case has semi-translucent hinged lid and red base with a fitted nest for the medal.

The artwork for this medal was created by P. Veremenko and A. Novichkov. The circulation was limited by the Soviet standards with only 2000 struck in total at the Moscow Mint.

The medal is in excellent condition, with perfectly defined details free of significant wear. There are no edge knocks or noticeable scratches. Very attractive even toning to bronze on both sides with just a couple of tiny oxidation blemishes near the edge that do not detract. One of the hinges of the case is broken, but the lid still securely locks to its base. The case is otherwise intact and shows only minimal wear to the exterior, still nice and presentable.
