I read somewhere that there were around 30,000 given of all types only to bulgarians?🤔🤔 Here are my medals, the ribbon with the black stripe is replica.

Those two medals belonged to a person on this photo. When I bought them the seller told me that when he was buying them many years ago, there was a whole photo album that the person who was awarded made. But sadly the seller I bought from, bought only one picture and those two medals. It's very interesting how a small piece of the inside is missing, were they on a ribbon bar? Also why is the medal from the Balkan war more used than ww1 one? Did he wear more the Balkan war medal than the ww1 medal? Happy to contribute to the forum! 1

Yes it is a pity that the rest of the photos are missing, However the Dealers/sellers think for the profit not for the history. Nevertheless it is a nice photo Nice Set
