Iraq 1 dinar 50th Anniversary of Army PR67 PCGS silver coin 1971

The Iraq 1 Dinar silver commemorative coin issued in 1971 (AH 1390) marks the 50th Anniversary of the Iraqi Army, commemorating half a century since the establishment of the armed forces in 1921. This impressive proof issue honors an institution that played a major role in the development of modern Iraq and remains an important piece of the nation’s military heritage.

The obverse presents a powerful military composition featuring two uniformed soldiers wearing helmets. The foreground soldier is shown in profile, while the second stands behind him holding a rifle across his shoulder. Their determined expressions symbolize discipline, service, and national defense. The anniversary dates 1921 and 1971 appear prominently on either side of the figures, reinforcing the historical significance of the issue. The reverse features the denomination “1 Dinar” within a circular central medallion. Surrounding the denomination are elegant Arabic inscriptions commemorating the Iraqi Army anniversary. Decorative arabesque ornaments flank the center, while intricate Arabic calligraphy, Hijri and Gregorian dates, and a denticulated border complete the design.

Struck in silver with a Proof finish and certified PR67 Deep Cameo by PCGS, this exceptional example displays superb mirrored fields and sharply frosted devices. Combining military history, artistic craftsmanship, and premium preservation, it is a highly desirable addition to collections of Iraqi, military, and world commemorative coinage.
