Stamped nickel with rust red painted lettering and at one time in the other recesses of the badge (most of this background paint is now gone).

7- (Very Fine-): Lovely even patina. Slight paint loss in background does not detract.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
