1930s US Army 1st Engineer Battalion DI by Meyer

This is a 1930s distinctive insignia for the United States 1st Engineer Battalion by Meyer. The DI shows an anchor with two crossed oars flanked by two crescents, and also a fleur-de-lis and a lion rampant divided by a diagonal red bend.

Circa 1930s.

Approximately 1-1/8" in height 1" in width.

Plated brass with enamel.

Single screw post (missing a backing).

N.S. MEYER NEW YORK and maker mark.

This is from a United States Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months VAL90 LBDX10/11

6+ (Fine-Very Fine): The DI shows some moderate wear and tarnish; a couple of small pieces of the enamel are missing.

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