    A Nice Bulgarian Box


    Recommended Posts

    Now... I have to ask because my twin asks....

    If the Bulgarian Mint continued to use an archaic gold mark (A-4 under the crown).... why are there no examples that I have handled, seen or seen pictures of that bear a gold hallmark??

    Here's a different example of a Hero Labor Document. I have heard this called a "luxury" type. Group included this document in a large, heavy folder, ribbon in the center to hold the documents. Embossed gold cover page with embossed gold perimeter band, the document and an original of the ukaz.

    (translation help greatly appreciated)
