I think it came from their mission control. Not sure if there is flown material in it. Not as heavy as a Robbins but just a little lighter then some of the medallions out there.

No one was able to help but I did find out the following:
  • Made of Aluminum
  • 2.5 inches round
  • MCC is Mission Control Russia
  • Given out to dignitaries and guest
  • Hard to find outside of Russia

All times are CT (US)
