    Hallo Gentlemen, :beer:

    a good friend of mine here in Romania has picked up some loose medals, among them an unknown to me one of Arab issue,

    can any of you give me a value?? I am more into the historic value, he being poorer, the monetary value. :blush:

    POST POST: I now know it to be: IRAQ (Kingdom) -- Coronation Medal of King Faisal II, 1953,

    Official British Royal Mint striking

    It also came in bronze (official) from Huguenin.

    Any Value?? Please.

    The status of the bronze coronation medal is vague. Only the silver was ever official, though the bronzes existed. It is unclear why. What is even less officicial are the silvered bronze medals, probably an interim solution to the late supply of medals from London. The real (silver) medals were struck on the same plancet as the QE2 coronation (leftovers?). If anyone wants more information and images, I can provide.

    The price for the Iraqi Kingdom Bronze Coronation Medal is valued at $40-$80.00 all depends on the condition and has the correct ribbon.

    Huguenin made.

    The English Mint with the correct ribbon in mint have sold for $450.00 I bought mine for 100.00 each in Baghdad, Iraq a few years ago. Vauled price for it is in between $175-$300.00 is the highest I would pay for one.
