Confirmed as Afghanistan. It is for the Republic of Afghanistan under the rule of President Muhammad Daur 1973-1978. The symbol on the eagles chest represents a Mihrab (prayer niche) and Minbar (preachers platform) in a mosque. The scroll contains the words Afghan Republic. Not sure of the significance of the date 1252AH??

Hi Eddie,
I was once told that this was for the Afghan Police of the same era. Could it be that all uniformed personnel wore the one badge? Here's the button that goes with it. Rgds, button_guru -------------------- Buttons aren's just a hobby! |
