Guys,
I recently gathered a little bit of information about this order: . It was founded either in 1931 or in 1947 (information is contradictory). I tend to lean for the later date, as the Statutes of the Order were published by the Ministry of the Spanish Republic in exile in Paris in 1947. . It was awarded apparently up to Franco's death, as long as the "Spanish Government" was exiled in Paris. . There seems to be different classes: so far, we have a Star of the order, I have found mentions of Commander level, and I have photo evidence of a knight badge as well as a bronze medal to the Order. I would venture that there were 5 classes to the order (Grand-Cross, Grand-Officer, Commander, Officer and Knight) and one or two levels of Medals to the Order. . The orders may have been manufactured by Arthus Bertrand in Paris (we need confirmation of hallmarks on existing specimens). Marc Knight badge (5th class) |

Re: Order of Liberation
Very interesting. Thanks!
Bertrand has records, but they don't like to show them to anyone. |
