Hi Guys, this medal was established 9 June 1945.

Awarded to all servicemen of the Soviet Army, Navy, and NKVD who participated in the capture of Berlin from 22 April 1945 until 2 May 1945. It is made of brass. Approximately 1,100,000 were issued.

The medal can be found in four variations, of which I show here from my collection. Note the differences in suspension rings etc.

Cheers, Ade.
