Albania People's Republic Order of Patriotic Achievements Medal 1962

Albania - Communism era: Order of Patriotic 
Achievements, Medal.
The Order was instituted in 1962, in 3 classes and 
1 medal (as of this example) and was awarded in
 VERY LIMITED NUMBERS to "those who possess 
patriotic merit and are known for their support 
and contributions to the People in the battle for 
national independence, liberty and progress". 
This is the initial form (the Order was amended in 
1992 to a circular, totally different form, with the 
same ribbon).
A scarce medal.  
Despite being a former communist country,  
Albania issued medals and decorations of high 
quality and in very low numbers.
