Bulgaria. Medal for the 25th Anniversary of People’s Power
The Medal for the 25th Anniversary of People’s Power (Медал „25 години народна власт“) was established in 1969 by the People’s Republic of Bulgaria to commemorate the 25 years since the establishment of the new political regime, marking the period from 9 September 1944. It was awarded to Bulgarian and foreign citizens who had participated in the liberation of Bulgaria from fascism.
The obverse depicts a stylised female figure holding laurel branches above her head, flanked by an ear of wheat and a cogwheel, symbols associated with agricultural and industrial labour. The reverse bears the four-line inscription „25 ГОДИНИ НАРОДНА ВЛАСТ“ (“25 Years of People’s Power”), accompanied by laurel branches and a five-pointed star. The medal is made of a zinc and copper alloy and has a red ribbon with a white stripe along one edge.
