    New medal bar with Hungarian medal-Help!

    What is the very last medal on this bar?

    First of all it's not Hungarian but a Bulgarian Medal on the ribbon for bravery. It could be a merit medal, but I can't say more since I don't know this medal.

    Ciao,

      Claudio's right. It's a Bulgarian Bravery Medal for enlisted. I'm not sure what class other than the lowest.

        That is actually the Medal "for Merit" ("Za Zasluga") which came in bronze and silver in two grades-- with and without crowns, and on either a civil ribbon for peacetime or on the war ribbon, as here, for military service.

        Awarded primarily by rank, it seems, which means this fellow was likely a junior NCO.

        Here are two of the immediate lower grades, a Ferdinand in bronze with the crown and a Boris III same grade (Gefreiters etc) on the war ribbon from WW2.

        There isn't a direct German equivalent for these in WW1-- perhaps a WW2 KVK2X comes closest.

        Nice set!!!
