Bulgaria Officer Class of Bulgaria Order for Civil merit
Ikon replied to Graf's topic in Central & Eastern European States
Many thanks, Graf! So the Silver Cross is the lowest of all Civil Merit medals? Also, how can you tell he was a Life Guard without rank? -
Bulgaria Officer Class of Bulgaria Order for Civil merit
Ikon replied to Graf's topic in Central & Eastern European States
Dear Members I have this Medal from my Bulgarian great-grandfather. It appears to be an Order for Civil Merit Silver Cross. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_06_2012/post-14050-0-89064900-1340202633.jpg. Below is a picture of him. I managed to trace the uniform and found out that he was a member of the Bulgarian Life Guard Cavalry. Can anyone explain the difference between the regular Civil Merit medals (like the ones posted on this topic) and the Silver Cross? Also, I would be really grateful if you could trace what year was it issued in. Thank you kindly!
