A very pretty gold coloured metal pin badge from former Czechoslovakia.
The badge face is 1.6cm high and has a long, stick pin style fastener to the rear.
This is an antique pin badge, made in the 1970's and in good condition.
This badge commemorates the anniversary on the 9th Oct 1949 of the battle, which was the fiercest seen on Czechoslovakian territory.
The pin depicts the rock memorial that was erected after the end of the war and that still stands today.
It is a memorial to the 500+ soldiers of the 1st Czech regiment who were killed in fierce fighting.
