Description: Thanks for looking! Soviet KGB Border Guards 80th Anniversary Medal - Umalatova Award 1998 Diameter: 35.22mm Weight: 24.429g The obverse shows the profiles of two border guards with a red map of the USSR behind them and a Soviet seal on the top. The reverse shows the Soviet border marker, the dates "1918-1998" and writing (translated) "Borders of the USSR are Sacred and Untouchable" This is one of the "alternative medals" issued by the Communist-run Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR - legislative body of the Soviet Union that continued to operate for years after the Soviet Union's collapse! Naturally, these medals were never approved by the President of Russia and therefore never became a part of the official award system of modern Russia. Recently, they were banned by the Putin's government, and some of them are now becoming scarce. *** Reach out to me with any and all questions you have.
