extant4cell Posted June 17, 2020 Report Share Posted June 17, 2020 Somehow I missed this in 2019... They are still available from Russian grading company on whose request they were issued: http://www.nnrcoin.ru/80i.Medal_2019_SPMD.htm I've secured mine from another source. In any case they should have no problem sending this medal overseas, I believe, as it is a newly produced item and you should be still able to get it.
