| Medal
for Civil Merit |
 |
 The
medal is weighs 11.8g and is made of "Tompak" (bronze).
I inspected an unissued (yet to be awarded) original in the
Moldovan President's Office on 13 April 2004 and noted that
its weight was only 11.9g (I saw number 02112). The medal
is on a simple suspension, has a soldered ring and was made
in Bucharest. The avers bears the words "for civil merit/meritul
civic". I am trying to find out how many people received
this medal.
