Badges showing the ship were made for many commemorative occasions and are a classic entry point for anyone collecting Soviet naval and revolutionary themes. The combination of aluminum and enamel is typical for mass-produced Soviet badges. A badge of this kind is easiest to enjoy up close. The five photos show the ship design from several angles, and the aluminum body keeps it light enough to wear on a jacket or to mount on a display board. Collectors of naval themes often put an Aurora pin next to badges of other Soviet ships, fleets and naval academies, which gives a display a clear subject and makes the differences in size and enamel color easy to compare.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soviet Vintage Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67681930510485,"sku":"EBAY-407172113916","price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/0500\/3413\/files\/soviet-aurora-cruiser-pin-badge-aluminum-enamel-1.jpg?v=1791722487","url":"https:\/\/sovietvintagestore.com\/products\/soviet-aurora-cruiser-pin-badge-aluminum-enamel","provider":"Soviet Vintage Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
