MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Silver Plated Nickel, or possibly even unmarked silver.

ATTACHMENT: Vertical pin with come-under locking catch, converted from Come-under TYPE Tiffany Style Locking Catch..

MARKINGS: N/A

ITEM NOTES: This is from a United States Army Air Corps collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. CON-RLB-MBEJX-4/00-20 LBDGEX10/07/20 SLCDGEX05/23/24 SBJJJX07/24
