Threewood Posted January 20, 2025 #1 Posted January 20, 2025 Did Norsid sell their dies to another company, who then ground out their hallmark? Great looking wing, a little pricey on the asking price. How rare is this wing?
Bull Moose Posted January 21, 2025 #2 Posted January 21, 2025 Sold already, I think this is fair price ($150) for a partial Norsid hallmark bombardier. Fuil Norsid hallmark is probably $225+ Same wing without partial hallmark is $80-100. I would consider this an uncommon pattern.
Threewood Posted January 21, 2025 Author #3 Posted January 21, 2025 Thanks Bull. I bought it after seeing full hallmarked examples sold for $225+. I don't currently have a Norsid example so I hit the buy it now.
5thwingmarty Posted January 21, 2025 #4 Posted January 21, 2025 There are wings from several companies where the company name was marked out (Norsid, Orber). This may have been done to comply with QM regs that said wings to be issued to graduating classes couldn't be maker-marked.
Threewood Posted March 28, 2025 Author #5 Posted March 28, 2025 I found another with a partial hallmark. Great condition Aerial Gunnery wing, 2-piece with the base wing being an observer.
