Ed_Haynes Posted October 30, 2007 Posted October 30, 2007 To be quite honest, I have no idea what this royal Afghan medal is. I call it the "Anti-Aircraft Medal" due to the obverse image.
Ed_Haynes Posted October 30, 2007 Author Posted October 30, 2007 The reverse is where the answers lie. I think. The medals are dated, numbered, and as at least a part of the lower legend (which I have having trouble deciphering) there is a number (indicating, perhaps, some sort of annual something?).Here are five:1337 (= 1958 CE) - 41 in center - apparently no number in legend1340 (= 1961 CE) - 43 in center - "3" in lower legend1341 (= 1962 CE) - 44 in center - "4" in lower legend1342 (= 1963 CE) - 45 in center - "5" in lower legend1345 (= 1966 CE) - 47 in center - "7" in lower legendI think I am reading this right?
Christian L Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 just a guess, but could it be some kind of army shooting competition which happens every year?Christian
Ed_Haynes Posted April 23, 2009 Author Posted April 23, 2009 These medals are sold?Well, I purchased them several years back. They are now in my collection. They are not for sale, though some day I may sort out duplicates when they will be listed in the appropriate sub-section of the forum.
Alexander Kunstmann Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 I can change. In my own collection of more than 300 orders and medals from Afghanistan. Also there are many duplicates.
Alexander Kunstmann Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 I can offer you in exchange for other medals ore orders of Afghanistan?
