In excellent, near mint condition. The enamel is essentially flawless: it shows beautiful luster and has no wear with the exception of a single microscopic contact mark on the star that is not easy to find even under a 10x magnification. The details of the artwork including the hammer & sickle emblem are perfect and crisp; the gilt finish is pristine and exceptionally bright. Comes on original suspension, a two-layer model in steel with an integral catch of the pin. The old, probably original ribbon is immaculately clean. The connecting link appears to be original as well; its ends are still joined with solder in a seamless manner characteristic of the Soviet mint manufacture.
In short, this is a truly perfect example - practically impossible to upgrade condition-wise.
