Rare WWII US Army Paratrooper Badge by Norsid with Only the Slightest Die Wear & NO Die Stress
- SKU:
- uaiw20000nsw
Description
Extremely rare WWII United States Army Paratrooper badge by Norsid. The paratrooper badge is sterling silver and shows two wings furled tightly about a balloon. Norsid was notorious for having stress cracks and other issues with their insignia. Faulty dies, or faulty materials, I am not sure. This example shows only the slightest of die wear which does not detract from the beautiful, near mint condition of the badge.
VINTAGE:Circa WWII.
SIZE:Approximately 1-1/2" in length x 7/8" in height.
CONSTRUCTION / MATERIALS:Sterling silver.
