An attractive example of this crudely made rendition of the prolific 1914 issuance commonly known as the "Military issue", mostly likely produced around 1930-33 by the Communist armies, exhibiting a decent strike with even wear consistent for the grade displaying light gray patina with areas of richer coloration amongst the devices adding to its pleasing appearance.
