Lets think about that: Many Bulgarian officers got the Turkish star. Very oftenly you can spot it on the period photos. From time to time the orders surface on the antiques market /speaking the whole country/. From the ones that I have seen or heard of so far, 4-5 were enameled, only one was the original Turkish painted star. And speaking about the enameled examples, I know of only BB & Co, no other maker found here /just to underline, these are my own obsrvations on a very low number of awards, that surfaced in the last few years/. So, from my mentioned poor observations, can we guess, how the Bulgarians got the BBQ? I doubt they would go and buy replacement orders - rather they were given these from the Turks??? Or, is it possible that the Bulgarians could be supplied with replacement orders through the Germans in the Balkans? /though, again, it's quite unlikely they would spend money upgrading the awards, from our point of view it's money wasting / Well, just some thoughts, sadly none of the recipients is alive to remember those details Kevin, here is my example, I forget some thingsthe next day after purchase, but still very happy with that one!!
