    The St. Sava was often given to businessmen.

    It's a beautiful Order but absolutely hopeless to ever identify as a single award to a German civilian.

    Ever read the famous story by Pushkin about the Mayor of a small town's medal lust for the order of the Sun...and later the Order of a St. Sava?

    They were handed out by Consuls in the 1890s-1900s quite easily.

    Yash translated Pushkin's short story in a 1960s-70s Medal Collector; have otherwise only seen it in English in a 1950s paperback Penguin collection. It's well worth reading, not only for ordens-lust insights.

    Yeah-he did a good job too. I was reading it last week at the bus stop...."he tossed and turned in the bed, wanting, desiring yearning for the Order".
