History

Original form

The medal was initially in the form of a gold-filled crescent facing to the right that enclosed an eight-pointed star with flat dihedral rays on the front face.

"Ay-Ulduz" (Crescent and star) medal

The rear side of the medal has a flat surface and is bound with a thin fillet going along the cutout. An inscription with the letters "National Hero of Azerbaijan" is located on the rear side. Two one mm shapes are on the upper edge of the medal. A ring connects the crescent to four connected rhomboids attached to a gold-filled pentagonal plate 20 mm in height and 26 mm in width, framed by a fillet along the perimeter. Two slits are found on the sides of the block. It is mostly covered with a tricolor moiré ribbon in the colors of the flag of Azerbaijan. Its total weight is 21.5 grams. According to Decree No. 429, the Qizil Ulduz medal was issued to commemorate a "National Hero of Azerbaijan" after making modifications and additions to the former Decree.
