Very nice items. I like that Air Corps pendant/charm in post #3, lower right. Is it marked for metal content or maker?

That's a great 29th Engineer's SW Pin....cool variation. :thumbsup:
The small 116th pin looks fairly modern, it would be cool to see this one up close...it looks like the little pins we had for sale at the 1st Bde Armory HQ in the late 90s....I have one, so it would be neat to compare the two....

It is only marked "sterling" no makers mark. We have 4 or 5 different ones. Just got a US Navy one the other day. No one that we talk to can tell us who the maker is.Very nice items. I like that Air Corps pendant/charm in post #3, lower right. Is it marked for metal content or maker?
