In gilded brass and high quality "hot baked" enamels, remarkably well-made. Medallion is about 39 mm wide. The suspension device has an inscription "To a Foremost (Worker) in the Socialist Competition" and the year of issue. Comes with original plastic case with translucent cover showing Romanian Socialist Party emblem and RSR abbreviation for Romanian Socialist Republic (used only after the name changed in 1965 from "Romanian People's Republic" or RPR).

The medal is in excellent condition, with perfect enamels and bright gilt finish. The cover of the box has some scuffs and rubbing, but the box is intact and well preserved overall.
