I need help identifying a Soviet Union-looking medal that I found in my house.

by Archdemonic

I was looking for something, I was looking through drawers and boxes, and all that when I found this strange medal kind of thing, it didn't have the part you'd use to hang it, the cloth part, just the gold colored metal part.

I assume this is the front part.

I actually have no idea where it came from or if it's even a genuine medal, is there any information you can give me on it?

The reverse side translates to "Fifty years of armed forces
USSR"

Try /r/whatisthisthing. It pretty good with these types of questions.
