An original 50th anniversary badge of the Mongolian People’s Republic Police, issued for the service’s major 1971 golden jubilee. Modern Mongolian policing traces its institutional foundation to 19 July 1921, when the new People’s Government reorganized the police under the Ministry of Military; it subsequently developed into the nationwide State Police organization of the socialist republic. The 50th anniversary was treated as a major state occasion: the MPRP Central Committee, Great People’s Khural and Council of Ministers presented the organization with a ceremonial Red Banner and diploma, personally received by senior Public Security and police leadership. This badge belongs to that important jubilee year, when the Police stood at the center of the MPR’s system of public order, criminal policing and internal security.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe badge is a substantial Soviet Mint-produced, two-piece suspended issue in silvered metal and enamel. Its rectangular suspension is divided into blue and red fields and carries the raised Mongolian inscription “Police.” Suspended below is an oval medallion centered on the Mongolian Soyombo, with a small star above and the large anniversary numeral “50” set within a red-enamel shield between green enamel laurel sprays. The reverse remains plain and retains its original period horizontal pin fastening, with honest surface wear and patina consistent with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the specialist, this type should also be distinguished from the formal star-shaped “50 Years of the MPR Police” Honorary Badge, whose regulations were approved by decree on 2 October 1970 and which carried a different red-star-and-shield design. This suspended Police 50 issue is a separate jubilee badge associated with the service’s 1971 anniversary celebrations and is considerably less familiar than the standard honorary decoration. Its Soviet Mint manufacture, unmistakable police inscription and specific 50th-anniversary context make it a particularly strong piece for a collection of Mongolian People’s Republic police, Ministry of Public Security, socialist law-enforcement or Soviet-produced Mongolian insignia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mongolian People's Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52892891480376,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/1256\/7096\/files\/IMG_1362.jpg?v=1788285040","url":"https:\/\/khanmilitaria.com\/products\/1971-mongolian-people-s-republic-police-50th-anniversary-badge-soviet-mint-original-issue","provider":"KhanMilitaria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
