Год ocнoвaния translates as year of founding, or establishment.
The badge (pin) probably refers to the state emblem of the USSR, adopted in 1923.
If you could post a picture it would help
Edit - Found it! It is a Dynamo Sports Club badge. They were founded in 1923

The red star and sheaves of wheat sound like the national emblem of the USSR, which was adopted in 1923. Is the "D" definitely a letter, or could it be a stylized hammer and sickle, which was part of the emblem?

Not sure....but why not take a photo and provide a link. There are plenty of Russian people in the U-S..or ask the question in the International section.
