Order Of Petra Zrinskog And Frana Krste Frankopana

Red Petra Zrinskog i Frana Krste Frankopana/Order of Petar Zrinski and Fran Krsto Frankopan

The version with Gilt Plaitwork was posthumously awarded to the families of Croatian and foreign citizens who, symbolised forever in honourable remembrance, fell in battle for the Croatian State in war, the direct threat of war, or in exceptional circumstances in peace.
The order with Silver Plaitwork was awarded, in their absence, to the families of Croatian and foreign citizens who disappeared in the course of the War for the Homeland.
One source indicates that the Red Petra Zrinskog is the gilt plaitwork and the Red Frana Krste Frankopana the silver version, so two seperate Orders with a common name.
9,940 with gilt or silver plaitwork have been awarded.

This example is the gilt plaitwork version.

This is the silver version, awarded to the families of the MIA.
In the case that the missing persons remains were found the award was supposed to be returned to the government.
