Sorry for the fuzzy pics. I have tried to take these 2 or 3 times and can't seem to make this one any clearer.

I had NO idea... fantastic, mahvelous, outstanding, excellente, mind boggling.

 

I can just hear what our Squadron Top would've said if any of us had ever showed up on the flight line with something like these. Human decency and the forum TOU prevent me from attempting to characterize his probable comments. :D

 

I have now been infested with interest in bullion.

Here's mine. Well, actually my Dad still has it. IT's 11th Airborne Division patch, he wore when he was assigned to them in 46-47 during occupation of japan.

OK, Not a patch but a nice tab. And the only bullion I have (for the moment). :)

 

 

Wow, that is nice would you by any chance be interested in selling it ;):)

Not British made in my opinion.

Hi Bullion posters, this one I have had a about thirtyfive years I just found it out this morning whilst looking for something else, it is British made and came from a military tailors store, nothing much else to say about it. Cheers ( Lewis )

The next two images I post are the sum total of the bullion patches I found from about 1984 through 2007 at Dallas area estate sales. As you can see the quantity and quality is pretty slim with a few interesting exceptions.

Visited my dad today and we were going through a box of his from his time in the army. I discovered a gold bullion overseas service bars belonging to my dad. I also included his other set of overseas service bars. He doesn't remember when or were he obtained them. However, I can estimate the time frame. It earned them during the Korean War, so it would have to be 1953 or later. He returned back to the states early to mid 1953
