Order "People's Republic Of Bulgaria".

Your booklet has the number 77 inside of it just above the date. I think that is the number Sébastien was looking for.

As I go through my medal notebooks I find medals that I haven't posted. So here's one...

People's Republic of Bulgaria
Order of the People's Republic of Bulgaria
1st-3rd Class (The third Class is identical to the 2nd Class but smaller)
This is the fourth highest Order after "Hero" Titles

Here´s mine, I received yesterday after THREE months waiting. It got lost during its way here, but luckily the seller was responsible enough to urge the postal service to find it and delivering it to me.

I hope the document is original, I have no experience in documents.

I´m quite surprised by the high quality of the case and document, if they´re really from the date written in it. I thought that Bulgaria also lowered the quality of its awards and its accesories during the last years of communism.

Last pictures. I really like this award; it´s design is simple but elegant.
I noticed the suspension is rather thick.

Thank you Doc! :)

My concern now is the authenticity of the document, for as I said before this is my first documented award and I have never seen an award document, soviet or bulgarian or other.

Order "People's Republic Of Bulgaria" 1st Class Type 2 (Flatback with large kolodka)

Although instituted in 5 Classes, 4th and 5th Classes never existed and none of these Orders were ever serial numbered.

Order "People's Republic Of Bulgaria" 1st Class Type 2 (Flatback with small kolodka).

[CtahhR]

Order "People's Republic Of Bulgaria" 2nd Class Type 2 (Flatback with large kolodka).

[CtahhR]

Order "People's Republic Of Bulgaria" 2nd Class Type 3 (Flatback with small kolodka).

The "Medallion" areas of both the 1st and 2nd Classes are the same. The 3rd may look the same as the 2nd but it is smaller.
