Hi mark,

I've seen a "Bravery Order", 3rd class on offer for $40 but I am sure Dietrich can say more on that subject.

How many were awarded?

Now that is a question that would interest me also!
I've been looking for award numbers for a while now on the web and there doesn't seem to be any source of information on this Thema.
I was hoping very much that our Bulgarian friends could help with this. ;)
So if anyone has any info regarding award numbers help would be much appriciated.

I believe there were 500 numbered Order Of Bravery 3rd Class made most of which never left the warehouse. I picked up #328 with Case for $40 I think sometime in the last 10 months. There are a considerable number of Bulgarian awards out there which were in the warehouse until sold off fairly recently so there was a large wave of them onto the market. I often buy original cased awards that have not seen the light of day since production by the dozen and sometimes for as little as $5 a piece delivered. Some of the awards were produced and never even mounted on a ribbon so frequently finding a ribbon can be far more difficult than the medal and the document? In dreams! Ah the complexities of collecting!
