Wikipedia kinda oversells the standardisation rules of the flag. If you look at photographs of the Soviet flag from throughout its history, from the Stalin era well into the Brezhnev era and beyond, you still see plenty of different styles of the hammer and sickle. So it might be a bit tricky. Although someone who knows fabrics and cloths and such might be able to date it by the material texture
I'm not an expert but I've owned quite a few banners and flags and the material and printing scream mid-80s to me. They made a colossal amount of this kind of stuff and every decade prior it becomes less and less likely since this stuff was made to be used and then replaced when worn out. So mid 80s stuff is way more common because the Union collapsed before it could all be used and massive warehouses were left in successive states hence why late banners and whatnot are quite cheap from European sellers on Ebay. A Revolution or WW2 flag/banner is worth it's weight in gold to collectors but this kind of polyester flag/banner is readily available.
this one - from late 70s- mid 80s, Synthetic textile and bronze hammer-n-sickle print, at that time widely used as decoration at 1 May and 7 November holidays
these golden hammer & sickles were used on flags in late 70s/early 80s if I‘m not mistaken
Ah yes
It’s something after 1955 because its %100 screen printed and before 1980 bc of the crudeness of it, its most likely a civilian issue flag

1923-1992
Thank you sir you may as well have told me the day it rolled off the factory line lol
Well then it looks like it was made in the 60s or 70s.
If you asked that...
That is what I was looking for, Thx!
Youre welcome.

The flag of the failed Soviet Union. Ruzzia will never prevail and it's sordid past will haunt it forever.
Ok... So what years on this specific design?
1970s, 1980s
Well yeah but where does it wanna go for dinner then
Post-Stalin era.
Hamsic design looks like it was before standardization in 1955

Era of misery, shit, injustice and poverty
No shit Sherlock. Always one like this.
