Silver, enamels; measures 45.9 mm tall, 48.7 mm wide; weighs 31.3 g without the screw plate. Features flared edges of the star and a mint mark approx. 8.5 mm wide and with a straight dash over the last character "й" in the word "Monetnyi" (poorly struck and barely noticeable). The reverse has a shallow depression near the bottom.

This specimen was manufactured in 1945 at the Moscow Mint. The award was bestowed either at the end of the Patriotic War or soon after, and in any case almost certainly to a WW2 participant.

In excellent condition. The enamel shows a beautiful luster and is nearly perfect, having only some microscopic contact marks invisible to the naked eye. The center medallion has a couple of minuscule dings that are nearly unnoticeable; otherwise, it is essentially pristine, with its raised details perfect and exceptionally crisp. The screw post is full length, approx. 13.5 mm, and includes an original WW2 era screw plate. A superb example overall.
