RARE Soviet USSR original Medal: "For Bravery in Fire Fighting". Made of copper-nickel.
HISTORY: Established 31 October 1957.
Awarded to workers in the fire guard, members of voluntary fire fighting brigades, servicemen, and other citizens who display courage and bravery in extinguishing fires; in saving lives and for saving socialist or private property from fire; and in preventing explosions and fires. This medal was designed with the text on the obverse, but it was not uncommon for the recipient to alter the medal so that the more impressive design of a fire-fighter saving a child was always displayed. The metal composition changed over time. Until September 1960, the medal was made of silver. After 1960 the medal was made of a silver alloy and plated with silver, and finally, perhaps during the 1980's, German silver ( copper, zinc, and nickel ) was used.
Approximately 32,000 were issued.
Mintage of Copper-nickel variation - 2000 - 3000 pieces
