Parachute Jump badge, 1968 type, early version, circa late 1960s.
Brass, enamels; 49.5 mm tall (not including the pendant) x 22.3 mm wide. Features early style airplane and larger, more detailed image of the paratrooper turned slightly to the left (as compared with the later issues). Note also the wider space between the right and left suspension lines. There is early- style hexagon logo of the Pobeda Factory on the reverse in the upper right. The pendant is reversible, for making 1 or 2 jumps.
In very fine to excellent condition. The enamel is almost perfect. There is a tiny flake to the white enamel near the upper left edge. N
