Sorry for that, Thanks.

A group of 7 King Faisal II Development week Medals, issued in years 1955-58, all are bronze, swiss made, in excellent condition.

As Rogi points out - Sales Section is the ideal place.

Hello William,

It's So Nice Collection, Never seen before like as it , very close to be complete collection if swords & other CWM + RCSM are added to the collection.

Good Luck & keep in touch. thanks for photosharing with the members here.

They Are Strling Silverware with two first Arabic letters from two words: first "F" from " Faisal " & second "Gh" from "Ghazi" as know the last king of Iraq was: Faisal Ghazi Faisal bin Alhussain bin Ali of Hejaz.

So nice pieces, but a very large collection of Silverwares include: Cup Holders, bowles, knives, Spoons and more.

All the collection was stolen from "Al-Zohoor Royal Palace" by Iraqi theives + American soldiers ".

A very bad Theft happened in the history of Iraq !!!!!!!!!!

Cheers

The Parachutists corps pins here as shown

Here are several wings patches related to Iraqi Air Force & some related to Republican Guard Parachutists Corps,

Rihab,

Well done on getting a named Levy pair /group. There cannot be to many Levies who served long enough to get a GSM and LSGC although there must be others out there!

The Assyrian Levies were raised in 1919 for local defence but did see offensive action. In October 1922 they were transferred from British Army to RAF control.

Owain.

Oh my God, it is a Very Great Collection. Thanks for photosharing with us.

Really a very interesting collection. So amazing.

Many Thanks for your photosharing with the members of this club.

hello i think the crown either refers to Iraqi or Jordanian Kingodoms because the shape of crown in both countries has the same design.

At anyway its not Iraqi military or civil medal and seems to be for local festivals like sports or others.

Thanks.

This cap is exactly for Iraqi previous president Saddam Hussein, see the red line is a part from the insignia (2nd part of insgnia is included in elleptical shape).

A beautiful cap really.

thanks

hope this subject was so usefull for all members here.

thanks for passing on it.

regards.

Here is a piece that i am looking to buy, but I need the information on this Iraqi Cap before I add it to my collection.

Thank you

Lorenzo

seems to be so nice cap, but For Iraqi navy corps , also its for the [revious President Saddam Hussein and Im afraid this is plunder from Iraq !!!!, since the insignia shown is for the highest office rank "moohib Rukon" = The General Leader of Iraqi Army = 2 swords + 2 leafs + others.

Regards.

Dear my friend, Lorenzo, I wish you success in Life and to return to your country and your family safely (=peacefully) & see you Later in the God's Willing.
