Bulgaria Bag & Behind: Bulgarian 9th September 3rd Class

[Guest Rick Research]

Thanks to the Traveling Museum's visit yesterday.

I've seen several of these nice maker marked Bulgarian Order of 9th September 3rd Class With Swords before. The screw disks were thriftily made out of the same "hubcap" that provided the obverse center motto ring.

BUT the screw disk for THIS one is made out of ALUMINUM--still maker marked just like the normal brass/alloy ones... but obviously NOT usable as the obverse ring.

AND this one has the original little paper packet. That's the only one that I've eveer seen!

The envelopes are very rare to see, very very few are preserved. Congrats !
