      It's typical Soviet made badge. I've never seen a box like that, they normally come in wooden boxes. I guess this one was custom made. William

      The Duke was awarded with the highest order of Bulgarian Kingdom - order of Cyril and Methodius, which was bestowed to only NINE Bulgarians (including 3 for Royal family) and 52 foreigners, mostly heads of state. Insignia of the order are worn in the form of the sach badge as well as breast star. I am not aware of any miniatures for the order. William

      Medal/ribbon combination on the first medal makes no sense. Yellow-blue are Ukrainian colors, while ROA on the medal is Russian phenomenon. More appropriate colors would be blue, white or red. William

      Ed, Sorry - I don't know his Russian spelling.

      Here's nice early Russian Civil War period photo. I was told this is Mongolian General Magsarjav. He looks Mongolian to me, but wears RKKA uniform. Does anyone have any info on this person? William

      Now, when I look closer - suspension appears to be heavily patinated, while medal itself has no patina at all. Should there be such contrast?

      Josef, would it be too much to ask to get a scan of the page where these awards are listed? Many thanks, William
