As promised photos from exhibition "Decorations in the legacies of the Historical Archives of Belgrade" ("Одликовања из легата Историјског архива Београда").
Really amazing decorations, most of them I saw for the first time in person. Taking photos is allowed, staff is very pleasant, I was even offered magnifying glass to look at the orders more carefully. You also get a free leaflet and as I already mentioned complete illustrated catalog in PDF can be downloaded for free (Just in case someone missed it I posted it here: http://gmic.co.uk/topic/57613-decorations-from-the-collections-of-the-serbian-museums/?page=11#comment-626092 ).1. Order of Hungarian Flag (Hungary, awarded to Koča Popović)
2. Order of Romanian Star (Romania, awarded to Vicko Krstulović)
3. Order of Tudor Vladimirescu (Romania, awarded to Dragoslav Marković)
4. Order of Partisan Star (Albania, awarded to Koča Popović)0 -

Thanks Chris.
I've done a little research and it turns out Egyptian orders were issued with buttonhole rosette (at least some of them). The main reason why I thought it could be Egyptian is because it belonged to Yugoslav diplomat who served there. Here's an example of 3rd class decoration with rosette (photo found on ebay).0 -

Sometimes you can read comments that examples with such a huge numbers are from storage because there were around 120.000 of them awarded. That's not the case with this one because it came with a document, it was awarded in 1953. But we also know that decorations unfortunately weren't issued according to their number.
