Hey, before we move on, are we first going to learn a little more about this pin? What was it given/ awarded for? And also, it has a hangar. So what was attached to it? Inquiring minds want to know.....Michael D. GALLAGHER

I got those just as I am showing them to you... I am glad it made this game somewhat hot !
Any info one those badges would be welcome since I do not know anything else on them....

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the honors. Unfortunately, I have already shared most of my Cold War collection over the past year, so I'm a little hard pressed to find a good Item to post, but I will take a look to see what I have available and get back to you.

Okay, here is the most obscured piece that I could find that I have not yet posted. I am only showing the obverse side because the backside is inscribed with what it was presented for. Good Luck!

Some sort of Soviet 4Oth anniversary commemoration for the victory over Nazi Germany... Can the cyrrilic MA + inverted N (MAI in latin letter) be of help to find it ?Last edited by olivyaya; 01-01-2005, 03:54 PM.Comment

The medal is definitely Bulgarian. It is the Jubilee Medal "40 years of Victory over Nazis". Issued 1985.Michael D. GALLAGHER

Olivier,
Congratulations! You are correct, it is not Soviet but a Bulgarian 40 years of Victory over Fascism Medal.
What I think is cool about this medal is the sword piercing the fascist symbol (swaz) at the bottom of the medal. On the reverse is written "40 Years victory over Hitler-Fascism" It was awarded in 1985 for in celebration of the 40 years victory over fascism it was presented to military servicemen.
I guess the ball back in your court.
