The first one is Saudi Arabian, unless there was more than one Arab country with a King Fahd.

No. 4 may be Egyptian or Iraqi - the eagle with the shield on his chest is used by both - but the shape of the shield is not quite spot on for either so...?

The crossed scimitars in no. 5 look pretty Saudi to me, though again, not the only people to use that emblem.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for you input. I am sure the last one is Saudi but can't seem to find out what it or the medal in No2&3 is either

Thanks again,

Bill
