zljones Posted December 31, 2013 Share #1 Posted December 31, 2013 Anyone have any theories and/or knowledge of this fine bullion rating badge. I theorize it could be a Drum Major like in John Stacey's book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KurtA Posted December 31, 2013 Share #3 Posted December 31, 2013 Either that or a sad, tearful Chief Carpenter. Nice pickup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sigsaye Posted January 2, 2014 Share #5 Posted January 2, 2014 Not being home, I don't have mr. Stacey's bible handy. I love this, and do believe I read that the rate did exist. Tis is almost as beautiful as an SMC crow from the same period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zljones Posted January 2, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted January 2, 2014 It also looks great in pre war, I just picked up a 1913-1930s white and love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sigsaye Posted January 3, 2014 Share #13 Posted January 3, 2014 Beautiful! love how the beak appears to be a different color than the rest of the eagle on the white crow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zljones Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share #14 Posted January 3, 2014 What I like is, how they added slightly whiter thread on the insides of the flags, it makes it stand out, and makes for a sleaker appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67Rally Posted January 3, 2014 Share #15 Posted January 3, 2014 Wow! Both of these skivvy wavers crows are stunning! - S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zljones Posted January 3, 2014 Author Share #16 Posted January 3, 2014 Thanks, I was fortunate enough to pick up that bullion in a lot, so I got it for a good price. One of those right facing bullions of Signalman went for $60+ on Ebay not long ago so I was fortunate to pay much less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
