Help me identify the coin, please!

Iraq 1981

Thank you very much!

Actually Iraq 1401 in the correct Islamic calendar, 1981 in the Gregorian or western calendar.

Yes both are marked on the coin, however Iraq uses the Islamic calendar, so when searching the Numista catalogue if you enter 1981 in the year search line this coin will not appear, because the correct year for this coin is 1401. Entering 1981 would have to be in the Gregorian date search.

And because Iraq uses the Islamic calendar, technically the correct date for this coin is 1401 not 1981.

You're right, but in the case of this coin “1981” works perfectly !
