September 7, 20205 yr #1 Hey gang, Picked this up recently at a local auction. Order of St. Agatha, GC set in its case. Beautiful earlier set by Cravanzola as marked on the reverse plate of the star. Just a beautiful order IMO. The Order of Saint Agatha (Italian: Ordine Equestre di Saint' Agata) is a State orderestablished on 5 June 1923 by the Grand and General Council of the Republic of San Marino. It is named after Saint Agatha, on whose feast day 5 February, Pope Clement XII reestablished the sovereignty of the republic in 1740. The order is presented to foreign nationals who have positively contributed charitable and other services for the benefit of the republic deserving. Not many OMD from San Marino so if you have any please share
