Manufactured by Huguenin (Le Loche, Switzerland). Obverse: A circular gilt medal, enameled black.

Within the wreath, a gilt triangle with a yellow-enameleded sunburst design with the Iraqi state emblem in red enamel. Below, the Arabic inscription “Nut / 17 Tamuz” or “Medal / 17 July”. Suspended by an integral loop. Reverse: Patterned with a small maker’s mark toward the bottom: “HUGUENIN / SWISS MADE”. Ribbon: 36-mm, white with 4-mm black edges: 4 mm black, 28 mm white, 4 mm black. |
