Same basic comment as I left on your other 2 .
I can't share anything on authenticity of these.
I do know that the market for USSR items used to be very high as they were scarce/ hard to acquire, but when the wall came down the market dropped significantly and has never recovered.

There are a number of good sellers on ebay from Poland / USSR and they sell some good russian medals and souvenirs from lenin to the russian space race. This piece would be easy to find out there on the net.
I found only few of them, and they are from US. So i dont know how easy it is to find it on the net.
Phil, Poland has a going enterprise making repro/counterfeits . Collectors have caught on to the point where they are using address sites in Germany, Bulgaria, Latvia etc. & it's just a matter of time before they use U.S. addresses (If not already!). They make excellent counterfeits of German artifacts & make buying a minefield of treachery . Even your usual honest collectors are putting on their sunglasses to pass on these articles they "got stuck with". "BUYER BEWARE !! This is why I was asking this poster about details . I have no interest in looking at pix without learning something. "Something of value" - "UHURU".
