The badge features the classic Russian state-security shield-and-sword form, deep red enamel field, silver-tone laurel and SVR star with central blue globe emblem encircled by the motto “Fatherland, Valor, Honor.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe lower blue enamel banner is marked “1st Department”, with the large “75” anniversary numerals at the base. In Russian institutional terminology, кафедра refers to an academic department, making this a specialized internal badge connected not simply to the SVR in general, but to a particular educational division within the Academy of Foreign Intelligence. Such academy and department-specific SVR badges are much less commonly encountered than broad anniversary or veterans’ pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reverse is fitted with a modern pin-and-clutch fastening, appropriate for a small formal-wear or presentation badge. The piece shows crisp relief, attractive enamel color, and strong silver-tone detailing throughout.
