| 1" x 3/4" W/B/R Flag of Russia with a gold bust of Boris Yeltsin in the middle. I picked up 6 of these medals when I was in Russia in 1989, before the collapse of the Soviet Union. Hence they pre-date Gorbachev's downfall and are from the period when Yeltsin was still a Communist Party boss of the Russian S.S.R. Later, of course, he successfully challenged Gorbachev and led the break-up of the Soviet Union. These are truly RARE and historic items commemorating the political career of one of Russia's most important leaders in the second half of the 20th Century. $25.00 |
