    ID medal on medal bar?

    I've asked before but forgot the answer ( ) -- can anyone identify the medal on the right side of this bar?
    Thanks!

        Thank you! Is there any other designation, like a grade, or with or without swords, or anything more specific?

          Hello George,

          It's the Bulgarian Order of Military Merit, grade VI (silver cross) for Sergeants.
          A very nice medal bar.

          Best regards,
          Tom


          *** Sorry, I was wrong here. The grade VI is without enamel, so this is a grade V.***

                The EK 2 is a so-called "Schinkel B" cross.

                  Hello George,

                  Sorry, but I was wrong in my first posting. It is actually a Bulgarian Order of Military Merit, grade V (cavalier cross) for Lieutenants & Captains. The guy that owned this was a commissioned officer.

                  Best regards,
                  Tom

                            Bulgarian Military merit order Vth grade, without crown. These crosses all came in two variants, with or without crown; w. crown is higher class of the same grade. Here is my crowned example (but from older period - balkan wars and early WW1). These are very nice awards. Even better on the bar!
