PDRA - Faid Djamanudin Afghania

[Ed_Haynes]

A classic PDRA problem:

- We have its image.

- We know its name.

- We have no clue about anything else.

Faid Djamanudin Afghania

[Dave Danner]

It appears to be Sayyid Jamaluddin Afghani, the 19th century Afghan philosopher, so I would guess it is a decoration for arts and sciences. It is a nishan-e dawlati, or State Order, rather than a medal, so it probably ranks higher than many of the others.
