Hello, I thought I would share my recent acquisition. It is The Order of the Yugoslav Flag - 5cl. The Order was instituted on 26 Nov 1947, by Marshal Josip Tito, and came in 5 classes. It was awarded for outstanding contributions to the development and strengthening of peaceful co-operation and friendly relations between the Federal People’s Republic of Yugoslavia and other nations...which is Communist speak for saying "social merit". The order is a 2 piece construction and is made of silver. It is numbered 499; the 5th class version was awarded 955 times until Dec 1989. The colors of the ribbon are that of the national colors of the Yugoslav Republic. The Order of the Yugoslav Flag was ranked number 10 in the Yugoslavia order of precedence, and came after the Order of the Yugoslav Star, and before the Order of the Partizan Star.
