Supreme Soviet of Ukrainian SSR membership badge, numbered, 5th Convocation, 1959.

Silver gilt, enamels; measures 26.4 mm in height at the flagpole, 33.7 mm in width; weighs 10.0 g without the screw plate. The reverse shows engraved serial number "385" and stamped mint mark "MD". The relatively wide and widely spaced characters of the mint mark date the badge to 1959, the only year the mint mark of this particular type was used on the Supreme Soviet badges. The Fifth Convocation of the Supreme Soviet of Ukrainian SSR took place in 1959 and had a total of 457 members. The badge is thus one of only 457 of its kind ever issued.

Excellent condition. The enamel is essentially perfect and shows magnificent luster; there are only a few miniscule contact marks that are practically unnoticeable to the naked eye. The original fire gilt finish is nicely preserved on both sides The screw post is full length, over 10.5 mm long, and comes with original screw plate in gilded silver.
