The reverse is relatively flat; the mint mark is approximately 8 mm wide, in small characters with the taller font of the first word, and has the dash of the letter "й" in the word "Monetnyi" located inside the letter. This piece is from the series manufactured in 1950 at the Moscow Mint having the serial number range from 2912901 - 2972900 / Durov, Strekalov, The Order of the Red Star, p. 238, 251/

In outstanding, excellent condition. The enamel exhibits beautiful luster and is completely free of wear noticeable to the naked eye; there are just a couple of microscopic contact marks that are not easy to find even under a 10x magnification. The center medallion is likewise essentially perfect, with completely pristine, crisp details and beautiful dark patina. The screw post is full length, approx. 12 mm, and comes with an original screw plate. Overall, a superb example!
