Allright, know what you mean, let me see, if i can find something... The lower classes seem to be easily available, but the higher classes are quite rare obviously.

Hi Gerd!

I think you have posted a badge third class (with diamonds) of the Bulgarian Order of St. Alexander. The badge second class had a white cross.

But this might be the star Rene is after:

[Gerd Becker]

Oh, thanks for clearing that up. It looked to me like a neck-order, so i assumed its a 2nd class.

Thanks again

Gerd

Here is an image of a class II set of the Bulgarian Order of St. Alexander from the recent UBS auction.

[sturm]

thank you all for your help! the link from ubs help a little bid, but i searching how often this set awarded.

[Carol I]

Up until 1908 there were 11 awards of the Bulgarian Order of St. Alexander 2nd class with surmounting swords. During the same period there were only 4 similar awards for the 1st class and 12 for the 3rd class. Who knows how many were awarded after 1908?

[Carol I]

To add just one thing, the numbers above refer only to the awards with the "princely crown" (not the "royal crown" that appears in all the images posted this far on this thread).

thank you carol I it hlps a little bid. i searching the whole awards from th e 2 class

best regards

Heinrich,

This variation of St Alexander order is rare, very limited numbers were awarded.

What year is your award? Can you post some pics?

Best regards,

William
