The Iraqi Mobile Scud Missile Launcher ingot depicts a camel with a scud missile upright in his mouth and Iraqi soldier swinging a sledge hammer at the camel's exaggerated testicles laying on a tree-stump. (We have censored this item due to its content.) It was originally issues for Gulf War-I and is now is being struck for Gulf War-II! A unique satirical memento to anybody who served (or is serving) in either of the Gulf Wars or for the collector of military memorabilia.
This is a flawless "cameo" proof-like strike; the backgrounds are perfect reflective "blazing-mirrors" and the designs are frosty white. The contrast between the mirror-like backgrounds and design is stunning! It weighs one-ounce and is struck in .999 pure silver and measures 1.96" x 1.14" and weighs more than a U.S. Silver Dollar.
The medal's subject matter makes this one extremely collectable and an interesting addition to any military collection.
Please note: this is not an Anti-Iraqi or Anti-Muslim item. Its messages is directed at Saddam Hussein and his political arm that promotes terror.
