This Medal is incredibly thick, in fact it is up to three times thicker than other Medals of the PRB.

The vast majority stock of this award remained unissued and was sold off by the mint without a ribbon nor suspension. Although this is one of the rarest PRB Medals and currently second most costly on the market some how I've managed to accrue 3 of them.

Colonel Nikola Kryetev Grigarov ( I think) got his first merit in October 1953 and his second 29 April 1954. Is it unusual to get two merit medals in 6 months? And for what deeds could he got theese?

He has also an early 1941-44 Order 2nd class.
Later on he became a General has I been told.
