Thanks a lot. So the time of the award?s concession is not on the paper??

It seems a card for discount in the public services due to be awarded...in the Central Powers side????

Thanks, again

Miguel-- Bulgaria switched sides in 1944, so this was most likley an award of the 1944/45 period, delayed processing until 1946.

He looks terrible for 32!

Keep in mind, that: 1. What they tell you, is not always the pure truth 2. Award documents alone and orders alone are very often seen. And the market is where they join each other... Unless there are numbers on the document and the award /and assuming the numbers are not forged/, it is tough to say whether the grouping really belongs together.

Yes, I know. But I?m consider that sometimes, the prices are not so high as to make any kind of forgery/lie ...neccesary...

Thanks to all

Hi Miguel, if the price was reasonable for the 2 pieces..... now you get the fun of finding the cross to match the document!
