LtDan Posted January 10, 2021 Share #1 Posted January 10, 2021 Hello, I saw this pin at an antique shop and wondered if anyone could tell me what it is? I did not see the back of it, but looks like a pin & catch on back. Would it be WW1 era? Would the eagle represent aviation? I'd appreciate any information about this item. Thanks, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trenchrat1918 Posted January 10, 2021 Share #2 Posted January 10, 2021 The pin you found is a WW2 sweetheart, service pin. The pin is not Air Corps or Air Force specific it is just a patriotic eagle. I don't believe I've ever seen the pin with a maker's mark, just a sterling mark. By the way, $20 is a very good price.Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LtDan Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted January 10, 2021 Thank you. I appreciate that information. My primary interest is WW1 aviation related items; but I may add this item to my collection anyway. Thanks again for the reply and information.

It's a quality piece of jewelry and would make a great addition. While it's not a steal at $20 I would buy everyone I found at that price.Sent from my SM-G781V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
