Republic Order of the Blue Sky and White Sun Badge ND (Instituted 1929) AU, 62mm, Barac-396. An outstanding example of this military order, awarded for valor under foreign invasion. The enameling remains bright and unchipped, while the reverse exhibits vivid iridescence. This order only comes in first class and the present example, numbered 394 in incuse on the reverse, still retains its ribbon and is housed in a custom display case.
