The inscription on the obverse of the medallion is "(To Reach) the Space Heights in One's Profession".

The raised inscription at the bottom of the suspension is ЛКСМУ ("LKSMU", and acronym for the Yong Communist League of Ukraine - i.e. the Ukrainian branch of the Soviet Komsomol Organization.) The reverse of the suspension has raised inscription "The Winner".
In excellent condition. The finish on the metal parts is nicely preserved. There is only minimal wear to the original ribbon that remains sound and clean.
This award was apparently issued for only a short time in the 80s and is therefore quite uncommon.
Please note, a penny in one of our photos is for size reference.
