Choibalsan Prize And State Prize.
#4
Awarded for broadly defined cultural achievement, the Choibalsan Prize was established in 1945.

I estimate that only about ten of these were awarded. Sadly, the order is neither named nor numbered.

This example is believed to have been awarded (at least it came with the proper certificate) to Tsevegmidyn Gaitav (1929-79), who received it on 8 February 1961.

The available citation is fairly cryptic:

'Poet. Bogd Soum, Uvurkhangai province. 1961. For his historical poem “Damdin Sukhbaatar”.'

He was, however, best known as the co-author of the words to the national anthem, 'Bugd nairamdakh Mongol' ('Anthem of Our Country'). Music by Bilegyn Damdinsüren. Words by Tsevegmidyn Gaitav and Choizhilyn Chimed. Music adopted 1950; words adopted 1961. This was the 1961-91 anthem:

Урьдийн бэрх дарлалыг устгаж
Ардын эрх жаргалыг тогтоож
Бүх нийтийн зоригийг илтгэсэн
Бүгд Найрамдах Улсаа байгуулсан

Сайхан Монголын цэлгэр орон
Саруул хөгжлийн дэлгэр гүрэн
Үеийн үед энхжин бадартугай
Үүрдийн үүрд батжин мандтугай

Ачит нам алсыг гийгүүлж
Хүчит түмэн улсыг хөгжүүлж
Бууршгүй зүтгэл дүүрэн хөвчилсөн
Цуцашгүй тэмцэл түүхийг товчилсон

Сайхан Монголын цэлгэр орон
Саруул хөгжлийн дэлгэр гүрэн
Үеийн үед энхжин бадартугай
Үүрдийн үүрд батжин мандтугай

Зөвлөлт оронтой заяа холбож
Дэвшилт олонтой санаа нийлж
Хандах зүгийг бахтай барьсан
Мандах коммунизмыг цогтой зорьсон

Сайхан Монголын цэлгэр орон
Саруул хөгжлийн дэлгэр гүрэн
Үеийн үед энхжин бадартугай
Үүрдийн үүрд батжин мандтугай

Transliteration:

Saikhan mongolyn tselger oron
Saruul khegjliin delger güren
Üyeiin üyed enkhjin badartugai

Saikhan mongolyn tselger oron
Saruul khegjliin delger güren
Üyeiin üyed enkhjin badartugai
Üürdiin üürd batjin mandtugai

(Although the scene where they unveil the statue of Chengis the Hutt -- where the tomb of Sukhbaatar and Choibalsan used to stand -- in Sukhbaatar Square makes me a tad angry, but I'm old-fashioned.)
