USSR 1946–1956 Border Plaque

This is a border plaque that I acquired recently. I've been looking for one for a pretty long time and I finally found one. I attached a photo, to show what they we're put on. The crest is the style used in the years 1946-1956, as it has 16 republics and Karelo-Finnish SSR in it. The plaque is still in the process of shipping, so I will get new photos of it later, if someone is interested.

Just curious - what section of the border this could be from

Excellent stuff, congrats Aleksander!

Thanks Mehti! Sadly I don't know, what part of the border this is from. I tried to ask the seller, but he only remembers buying it in 1991.

Oh yes, everything has been taken away everywhere in that big mess in 1991

Yes

. This style of a crest was officially used 1946-1956, but I think it could have been used for a longer period too, as no radical changes we're made in the design.
