Order "13 Centuries Of Bulgaria".

Here is the Order "13 Centuries Of Bulgaria" (Орден „13 Века България") which was founded 16th October 1981 to award people for outstanding contribution to the nation. Around 110 were awarded during the last decade of the People's Republic.

Firstly we have the star. A body made out of solid silver with a pin back and mint mark on the clasp.
