johnny12550 Posted November 27, 2013 Share #1 Posted November 27, 2013 Hi, I have this Submarine Combat Patrol Badge which is marked STERLING, but no other markings. Would anyone know, based on the construction of the badge, which company may have made the pin? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh B. Posted November 28, 2013 Share #3 Posted November 28, 2013 Thought to be a Blackinton product. Interesting that yours has an incised sterling mark. Most are raised, if my memory serves me correctly. Josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim B Posted November 29, 2013 Share #4 Posted November 29, 2013 I agree with Josh here, The stamped sterling is different from what is normally seen however, the rest of the badge including the hardware appears to match. Nice badge IMO. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horsa Posted November 30, 2013 Share #5 Posted November 30, 2013 Blackinton-made for retailers like Pasquale SF. The gutter is so the star studs won't snag. Occasionally you'll see one the sailor has customized by lowering the relief. Sometime back I posted pics of one on a Pasquale storecard, and a frame from an awards ceremony on deck showing a Petty Officer holding his up for the camera.
