Kev smith Posted January 19, 2021 Share #1 Posted January 19, 2021 Could I have some help with this Gilt USAAF Badge Please? The 'E' in E-Pluribus Unum is on the folded part of the Scroll. I cannot find another like this compare it to. It is 32mm x32mm. No Makers name. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeK Posted January 19, 2021 Share #2 Posted January 19, 2021 Hi, it looks like you have a common Army Enlisted hat badge that's missing the ~40mm diameter round backplate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeK Posted January 19, 2021 Share #4 Posted January 19, 2021 Now I see exactly what you are referring too. I had a look at a few of mine and the "E" varies in location from being on the left-most separate scroll/ribbon (like your example) or combined as "E. PLURIBUS". I have one example where the E appears to be missing altogether. I'd put the variations down to different manufacturers and their dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
