Default Belt Buckle - Saudi?

Good day folks

I think this may be a Saudi belt buckle. Any particular arm or just general Saudi armed forces?

Many thanks

James

Hi James

Pretty sure this is from Jordan although I'm not sure if police or military - no doubt those better qualified than I will know.

Hope this helps

Definitely Jordan, scroll reads Al Jaysh al Arabyah = The Arab Army, so it's military. Police insignia read Jordan Police etc.

Thanks folks, very helpful.

Eddie - thanks for the translation providing the definitive answer.

I don't think it is worth posting in the for sale forum so if anyone want's it just ask - postage plus a couple of quid.

All the best

James

Generous of you, I'm sure a forum member who specialises in the Middle East will appreciate it.
