Space memorabilia dealer Alex Panchenko has listed for sale (on eBay) this patch, described as cosmonaut Anna Kikina's Crew-5 signature or personal patch.

Take a look at what the prices are that Alex is asking for them (with a signed photo included as part of the package).

I designed this patch in collaboration with Anna Kikina. She wanted a patch that expressed her love of the outdoors including hiking and rafting. She wanted the design to give a sense of exploration of both the Earth and space. It features her gazing atop a peak with her characteristic ponytail.

Did she wear this patch on her clothes?

I've not seen/found a photo yet with Anna wearing this patch on any of her training suits/jackets or flight/space suits etc. But I think one should probably appear soon of Anna wearing this patch onboard the ISS?

Unless she has them in her PPK, if I had to guess, some might be delivered via Progress MS-21 later this month.

What happened? NASA banned sales with photos signed by Kikina in Crew Dragon spacesuits?
