Medal for Reconstruction of the Coal Mines of Donbass, late 1940s - early 50s.

In brass; 32.23 mm wide. In outstanding, excellent condition - one the best specimens of this medal we have seen in years. The raised details are perfect and exceptionally crisp; there is no noticeable wear or dings to either side of the medallion. The fire gilt finish is likewise exceptionally well-preserved and bright on both sides. There are only a couple of tiny spots, not detractive - otherwise essentially a mint example.

Comes on original brass suspension with very attractive old ribbon showing only modest wear along the edges, no tears or significant soiling. All-in-all, a superb piece, practically impossible to upgrade!
