Italian Army Challenge Coin Operazione Prima Parthica Iraq ITNCC-L Land Command

This authentic Italian military challenge coin represents the Italian National Contingent Command Land, which operates under Operazione "Prima Parthica" in Iraq. Established in 2014 as part of the multinational coalition to counter Daesh, the mission focuses on training and advising local security forces.

The coin's face features colored enamel imagery combining a warrior helmet, geographic maps, and the national flags of Italy, Iraq, and Kurdistan. Because these coins are minted in limited numbers and awarded exclusively by the Contingent Commander, it is a highly collectible piece of modern military history for any militaria collector

Item ships from Hungary, please allow extra transit time. Combined shipping available for our European Specialties. 

Condition: Excellent front. Back is very good with minor marks.

Size: Approximately 45mm and 25.8 grams.

Interesting Feature: The word "Contingent" is misspelled. The official graphic emblem created for this specific Italian deployment in Iraq features the exact same "Contigent" spelling error. Because the coin directly replicates the official, flawed unit artwork, the typo is a strong visual indicator of an authentic issue rather than a counterfeit copy.
