A good original example of the Medal for Valiant Labor in the Great Patriotic War. Shows obvious wear. Also has some old looking green thread attached which is how it arrived to me. Brass mounted, original but somewhat discolored ribbon.
 
The Medal "For Valiant Labour in the Great Patriotic War 1941–1945" was a World War II civilian labour award of the Soviet Union established on June 6, 1945 by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR to recognise the valiant and selfless labour of Soviet citizens in the Soviet Union's victory over Nazi Germany in the Great Patriotic War.
