Here?s something I just found on the internet

I think that Zodiac signs representing the constellations is the correct answer.

I tried to see some relevance on the date the order was created (september 1946) but...

Thanks all for the replies!

Ricardo

Here?s another insignia of the order. Not mine.

The same symbols.

duplicated post

I?m sorry but I cannot belive that the highest Brazilian Order, inspired on the Imperial Order of the Rose have those meaningless scribbles.

Ricardo

Not, I think, script, just markings.

Yes, but what they mean? Zodiacal signs maybe??

Thanks,

Ricardo

Hello all,

Today when taking pictures of mine new Brazilian order NATIONAL MERIT ORDER I found some strange script.

Can someone help me on this one?

It?s the highest order given by Brazilian Government. Since 1946 only 200 people were awarded.

I?m really happy to get this one....but all the experience I have with this order was in books, that do no mention this signs...

Thanks in advance,

Ricardo

Hi Milan!! Thanks for your kind words!

I did all the artwork and images, a friend of mine worked on the code.

Well, I used a Sony Cybershot 6MP. All you have to do is take the pictures under the daylight (not over sunlight) and adjust the camera to take MACRO pics.

A white background is also desirable...

There?s some wonderful Serbian orders on your website The Order of Milosh the Great is amazing!!!!!

Cheers,

Ricardo

Milan, thanks for your information and images!!

It helped A LOT!

Take a look at my website about brazilian orders www.ommb.com.br

Portuguese only, I?m afraid

Cheers,

Ricardo
