Andreas,
With that mintmark on the nut, I'd say post-Soviet.

Re: Dosaaf honorary sign
Andreas,
It is genuine, no question about that. I have seen a few over the years. From memory, they were Honor badges for organizations.

Re: Cold war group: a techinical marine officer
I don't think so. Given his rank and length of service, it would be surprising if he hadn't received at least one order, such as a Red Star.

Andreas,
I don't like the attachment device on the back of the last one, and the Дежурный ГАИ. I don't think they are Soviet production.

No, this is definitely not the inverted U ring. It is one of the several variations of the round struck ring.

Re: Police and Scurity Badges
Andreas,
There are quite a few different badges bearing the "Made in USSR" stamp. No need to precise that, as you anticipated, they are fakes produced in the early 1990s.
The one on the left is a nice original one though.

Re: Distintivo Unità della Guardia
Hi WW2,
As Andreas mentioned, your badge is the latest version that was produced in the 1980's until the end of the USSR. It has been "artificially aged".

Same here, it does not seem to match the production quality of those years.

Re: Badge of honor 23118
Regaleco, The screw and the base were manufactured in one piece using a lathe, they were not soldered together. So, if we consider that the rest of the order is genuine, this would indicate that it was converted to suspension at some point, the screw having been cut (which may help explain some of t...

Re: Badge of honor 23118
And here is another slightly earlier one. There is something that bugs me with that 23118, but I can't put my finger on what it is exactly. The surface of the back shows lots of unusual imperfections, the screwpost is not standard, the soldering differs from usual, the rivets have been messed with, ...

Re: Older Cap badge (brass made,two pieces)
GC,
I can't be totally affirmative on this one as I have not laid my hands or eyes on the particular cap badge being discussed for well over 5 years. Overall, it looks similar, but I can't recall the details

Re: State Price USSr 3rd class
Andreas,
I am very surprised by your references for the State Prizes with class. They are absolutely not as scarce as you seem to indicate.
I have pictures of (highest I have seen):
1st class: 1427
2nd class: 3294
3rd class: 4879

Re: Quattro rombi sconosciuti
Guys,
Without going to some theory as fancy as yours, I believe that these are nothing more than some low-quality pieces made for tourists/collectors (KGB, SMERSH, etc).
