I'm afraid I have no idea what it is but I'm sure someone will be able to read and translate the script for you. Report this Post to the Staff
Newember 2017 Valued Member Ukraine 53 Posts	Posted 06/12/2020 07:23 am Translating inscriptions is a good idea, the only problem is finding a person who can read it =) I'm sure that the token belongs to military aviation (combination of wings and a sword). However, there's no such coat of arms of the air forces in Islamic countries (similar elements are on the coat of arms of the Afghan air forces but there was founding year 1924) The foundation date of 1959 only Oman, but there's another coat of arms..

This represents a direct continuation of the royalist Medal for Devotion to Duty in its military aspects. The civilian aspect of the pre-Revolutionary award is continued as the Medal of Civil Duty. Awarded for faithful and courageous performance of non-combatant duty to members of the armed forces, regardless of rank. This includes potential awards to cadets at service academies. Can be awarded posthumously and to foreigners. https://www.brianrxm.com The Mysterious Egyptian Magic Coin Coins in Movies Coins on Television Edited by willieboyd2 06/15/2020 11:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Newember 2017 Valued Member Ukraine 53 Posts	Posted 06/16/2020 12:49 pm A little late (I was already prompted by one person from the Numista), but the information you provided is more detailed than what I found. For some reason, I was sure what it exactly the token =) Also,for me was important to know whether this silver or not, now I know for sure! Very grateful! Report this Post to the Staff
