Gorgeous 1930's USCG CPO Hat Badge Screwback by Meyer 1/20 10K

This is a gorgeous US Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Hat Badge from the 1930's. It is of a higher quality that the usual examples made by this maker, Meyer, in that it is 1/20 10K gold and silver plated brass, and has 2 small screwback fasteners for attachment instead of the usual pinback. This is the only example of this badge that I have seen made in this fashion.

Circa 1930's

9+ (Near Mint-): The badge shows almost no signs of wear, and the gold has oxidized slightly over the years to a beautiful glow. A nice rainbow tarnish is present on the silver shield at center. .

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