Russian SVR Foreign Intelligence Special Service 90th Anniversary Badge – Rare Award

Description

Original Item – Only One Available.
This rare 90th Anniversary badge was issued within the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation (SVR) to commemorate nine decades of its specialized service branch. Designed in the signature SVR style with a bold red shield, a prominent double-headed eagle, and the familiar SVR blue globe emblem at the center, the badge carries the traditional sword and shield motif associated with Russian foreign intelligence. The lower emblem, representing the SVR’s technical and special-service functions, further distinguishes this piece as an internal award, granted only to personnel connected to these highly restricted operational units.

Because the SVR remains one of the most closed intelligence organizations in the world, anniversary awards tied specifically to its special-service divisions almost never appear on the open market. Produced in limited numbers and distributed only to qualifying staff, genuine examples like this are sought after by advanced collectors of espionage history, modern intelligence insignia, and post-Soviet clandestine traditions. Its sharp detailing, strong enamel colors, and official construction make it a standout addition to any serious collection of Russian intelligence artifacts.
