<p>[QUOTE="helloevo, post: 1517912, member: 39898"]I know a little bit about it, it was given to me by my grandfather (he lives in Iraq), and it was given to him by the king of Iraq. It's supposed to be for a bridge that he worked on for the king and there were about 50 others that worked on the bridge that got this coin, among them were Germans as evident by "Munich" marking on the coin, I know for a fact it's not fake. My grandfather told me that if I were to take this coin to Jordan (I've been there, never again)and present it to the king, he would grant me immediate citizenship and then take the coin because he was related to the king of iraq and they like to keep things "in family". I've taken some pictures and there is one with a nickle on it for size comparison. I'm not looking to sell because it's a family heirloom, but I'm very curious as to what it's worth. Any ideas?</p><p><br /></p><p>P.s.
