KurtA Posted January 18, 2016 Share #1 Posted January 18, 2016 Picked these up yesterday morning. The enameled one is Japanese-occupation period. The other is WW2 Aussie-made. First ever crest I have found by this company - "Angus & Coote Jewelers". I've seen plenty of branch insignia and wings by them, but never a crest.

manayunkman Posted January 18, 2016 Share #3 Posted January 18, 2016 Very cool. The screw back looks to be a lapel pin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KurtA Posted January 18, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted January 18, 2016 Very cool. The screw back looks to be a lapel pin? No, it's standard size for a uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted January 18, 2016 Share #5 Posted January 18, 2016 Excellent Kurt, the Australian one no doubt made in 43 when the Cav was there before shipping out north to New Guinea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-17Guy Posted January 18, 2016 Share #6 Posted January 18, 2016 That Angus & Coote 1st Cav DI is very cool, I have never seen one. Any chance, when you have time, you could post a couple of pics of just that DI? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
