The crossed rifle and sword are giving me Oman vibes, but I'll look around to see what pops up. In the meanwhile, it would be super-helpful to know the diameter and weight. Thx for adding that to this thread.

(or I don't know how to search there which would be quite embarassing). First impression is the guy with the square jaw looks like Libya's infamous Moammar Gadafi, though I don't think the date works for him (too young).

INeverSaidThat New Member Czechia 17 Posts	Posted 08/07/2025 09:11 am Hi, thank you for your ideas. I think it's a medal, it wasn't used to pay. The diametre is about 4,8 cm and it weighs about 46,2 grams. It came to me in a nice etui. Report this Post to the Staff
INeverSaidThat New Member Czechia 17 Posts	Posted 08/07/2025 3:25 pm OK, problem solved, I got it translated and it says: Republic of Iraq, 1962 m - Souvenir of Baghdad's Millennium Festival - 1382 h. So it is commemorative piece of that event. Report this Post to the Staff
