- This is a very pretty 1968 Proton 4 pin badge celebrating a successful mission. A gold coloured metal badge, the badge face is 2.2cm wide and has a clasp style fastener to the rear. Featuring the proton 4 heavy satellite on a red Soviet star.
- Proton was a Soviet series of four cosmic ray and elementary particle detecting satellites. Orbited 1965–68, three on test flights of the UR-500 ICBM and one on a Proton-K rocket, all four satellites completed their missions successfully, the last re-entering the Earth's atmosphere in 1969.
