Polished at that point and then vacuum sealed? 

Like "brand new".

I do not think they're new minted, they're from a warehouse. Only silver orders with hallmarks.

Did I understand you well, this man bought a bunch of orders directly from the IKOM factory around 2010?

He did not buy it directly in IKOM, but from a man working in IKOM. Full bucket.
Order of merit for the people of the second and third class. Order partisan stars of the third class. Brand new packed in nylon bags with ribbon.

I know Yugoslav made Partisan stars were gilded but I don't remember hearing that about the Soviet orders. Is it in any other way different than the examples made out of gold?  Do you know what's underneath the gilt? Silver?

If it's not too much to ask could you possibly post couple of photos of that particular order?

I did not test it for silver only for gold. And after that, it was enough to me. It's no longer with me, I only have photos.

I tested the Partisan Star 1 class (soviet made). To my surprise was not gold. Just a good gild.

I also know a man who bought 7,8 years ago a full bunch of silver Orders from IKOM. He sold them all. Stocks of Orders existed, because Yugoslavia suddenly skimmed down and not all of the Orders were distributed

What should the content be, do you know?  900? 925?  Should the post be silver as well?

Shield of Yugoslavia

In the autumn of 1948, the preparations for the standardization of the symbols of the Democratic Federative Yugoslavia began. Along with the flag, coat of arms, etc., it was decided that a shield would bi created to symbolize the communal struggle of the Yugoslav peoples against fascism, presenting the force tat would always protect the country against any threat. The task is given to Antun Augustinčić, one of the best sculptors of the post-war Yugoslavia. It was later decided that the symbols that was going to protect Yugoslavia in the best way was Tito, so that the shield was finally made as a single specimen. And miniature of the shield is use for the Marshal badge.

Interesting design for a medal.

This is Shield of Yugoslavia

Very nice order and case.

Home made for sure.
