Sports "Medals".

The Bulgarians had a tradition of awarding quite generic Medals for sporting events, even major national and international events. In the early years of the communist rule this tradition slowly faded away for the generic Medals to be replaced by specific or "cover all" Badges.

This first Medal "For Participation" is for the 1948 Sofia Republic Autumn Horse Racing Horse Race of the National Union For Sport And Technology. These will have been created and awarded in a bespoke and extremely limited number.
