I don't have the order with me at the moment to make scans, but it looks exactly the same as the one Lukasz posted (on the left, with sach badge and breast star) in post #30.

I was just referring to the ones I have posted, all 6-torch variants in this case.
It's possible that at some point some issues were numbered.

There are four docs but only three medals.
Which medal is missing?

Question :
Are they all unumbered? Like this 3rd Class :
Yes, they are all unnumbered.

Really? I have paid that much for some items (and oh how it hirt), and would not spend anywhere near that in other areas (except my core focus). I find it amazing and scandalous what some people pay for German (especially 3rd Reich) stuff. Maybe it depends on the perspective, and there isn't one common view, William. You seem to assume there is?!
Of course there isn't a single way.
But there are mainstream areas and there are some less popular fields (Mongolia is one of them). It's getting better since some literature has been published on the subject, but still is very much niche market.
I was just thinking about this from investor's point of view: if you buy something for $12,000, you would hope it would appreciate and you make nice return on your investment. But what's ones exit strategy? If there isn't large enough market - whom are you going to sell to?
Again, what do I know? There may be plenty of folks to whom paying $12K and more for an order is in the same magnitude as for me paying for a common Red Banner is.

Why?
I guess I meant to say "for a Mongolian badge", not just any badge.
Mongolian awards is still very limited area, not that many collectors buy Mongolian awards. Most get lower priced awards, very few venture into something really expensive as $12,000.
Now, if this would be German or Russian awards - that's totally different game.

Yes, they are!
3rd class case is a bit smaller.

Gentlemen,
just 2 years ago one 1cl was sold for USD 600,-.
That's a price increase of 66 % in 24 month .
Best regards

It depends if award is cased or not.
In general, all Yugoslavian awards went up in price nicely over the last couple of years.
Plus, USD declined, currently 1 GBP = 2 USD. Exchenage rate was better for USD two years ago.

Much more, but he was
1- very much aware of Igor's site (as were most UB dealers), and used it as a benchmark, and
2- used to dealing with Russian and Chinese investors.
I guess investors are the only ones capable of shelling out $12,000 or more for a single badge.

Badge with sash, star and the so called Lesser Collar (the Greater Collar was worn solely by the Sovereign). Enjoy!

That's the one!

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.

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.

Order of the National Hero
in Southern European & Balkan States
Posted
$2500 is rather expensive!
The case for medal looks odd. I've never seen a case like that for a National Hero, the case looks like one for a cheap medal, not for one of the highest awards of Yugoslavia.
