Perhaps a trial or specimen. The Royal Family Order - Dzongkha Druk Thuksey (Son of the Heart of the Thunder Dragon) - was established by Jigme Dorji Wangchuck in 1966. The Star and Badge both feature a left-facing image of the Druk Gyalpo (Dragon King), with the inscription 'Bhutan' in English and Tibetan. The sash Badge is in the form of eight lotus petals, each of which bears a dorjee (thunderbolt) emanating from the portrait.
