sabrigade Posted January 14, 2011 Author Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Some Iraqi medallions and medals from Kuwaiti Edited January 14, 2011 by sabrigade
oamotme Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Will, The gilt one with the maroon ribbon is, I believe, Saddam's prize (order) for art - 1st Class - the second class is of silver with a blue ribbon - both are nicely made pieces and the earlier ones have a year date on a suspension link - Italian or Swiss manufacture(?). The top left trio are the Order of Arts & Sciences - in total four grades gilt and silver large and small - instituted 1996 (?) and locally made. There is also a science order (1999?) - again locally made, but these series of awards is very confusing and difficult to work out which are state orders and which are annual prizes but which are also worn - very confusing. There is also a 1988 Saddam Appreciation Order which also covers academc (literary, artistc, scientific ) success or merit What is the medal with the orange or red ribbon? Regards, Owain.

Guest IMHF Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Brother Will I was wondering is that a Wisam al Faisal I Breast Badge on the wall. Nice how much did that cost you buy it when you were in Iraq? Lorenzo
sabrigade Posted February 1, 2011 Author Posted February 1, 2011 Hi Lorenzo, It is the Order you are referring too. I cannot remember what the costs were but it is a very early version. Regards, Will
Guest IMHF Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Nice, I seen two in Baghdad, Iraq that belonged to a private collector. I offerd $5,000.00 for 1 of the Breast badges he had but would not except my offer. These are very Scarce The Order of King Faisal I Breast badge. Lorenzo
