Description:
Authentic Soviet USSR Honored Builder of the Uzbek SSR Title Badge
An original, highly prestigious Soviet state honorary award issued in the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic. This title was awarded to top-tier architects, engineers, and construction workers for outstanding achievements in building the republic's infrastructure.
The front side showcases a beautifully detailed construction scene with a building, a tower crane, and a laurel branch, encircled by a dual-language inscription in Uzbek ("ХИЗМАТ КЎРСАТГАН ҚУРУВЧИ") and Russian ("ЗАСЛУЖЕННЫЙ СТРОИТЕЛЬ"). The reverse side features the rising sun with rays, the abbreviation "УзССР" (UzSSR), cotton bolls, and an official hand-engraved personal awardee number: № 517. It comes attached to its original ribbon-covered suspension bar with a fully functional safety pin.
Technical Specifications:
Award Title: Honored Builder of the Uzbek SSR (Uzbekistan)
Country of Origin: USSR (Soviet Union)
Material: Silvered tombac / heavy metal
Serial Number: #517 (hand-engraved on the reverse)

Collector's Note:
Just like other regional Soviet honorary titles, the "Honored Builder" badge was produced in very limited numbers compared to mass-issued military decorations. Finding an early, officially numbered piece in such pristine condition is a fantastic opportunity for collectors specializing in Soviet labor awards, industrial history, and Central Asian phaleristics.
