    I will start a thread on the Order of 9 September (1944) since I also got one of those today.

    Here is the case for my just-arrived People's Liberty 2nd Class, with the name and class of the Order in 5 lines:

    Comrade Burkhov looks exactly like my Scottish veterinarian

    He appears to be in his late 60s, so he would have been in his 40s at least during the war.

    Awarded by an Ukaz of 24 January 1969:

    The serial numbers of the earlier Books seems higher than the Book numbers on later ones.

    I had this little gem in my hot little hands today just as it came out of the shipping box. It was a fun visit! I was surprised by how heavy it was. The case & document were superb!

    Hi Stogieman,

    That was the first thing I thought too (weight).

    Congrats.

    Good day. I think that the box from the lust showing order is not from this komplekt. Because the date of award is 1969 year and on box we can see so called "new coat" which was established only in 1971. Also on the booklet you can see "old coat".....

    Also my opinion that the order is not from this complect too. For this year of award might be order of the 2-d type on ribbon, but with a screw on reverse.

    So, if I read you correctly, you think that this is a "put together" group?

    Can you tell us more about why there was a screw on the reverse of that year's (1969) Orders?

    What are the differences by years?

    Lastly, have you seen Riemers' book on Bulgarian badges?

    Ah- so not a screw back used as an 'attachment- to- clothing' device, but the central piece of the order was screwed into the backing of the medal as a part of the construction?
