ARTIFACT: This is a wonderful 1860's or possibly even earlier police badge made from a Pre-18.62 Seated Liberty Half Dollar that appears to have a low-karat gold inlay which reads "3RD WARD. POLICE. G.W.K." The G.W.K. is the initials of the original wearer. This badge is most likely from either the Baltimore or Philadelphia Area.

VINTAGE: Circa 1860's.

SIZE: Size 1-1/4" in diameter.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Coin silver.

ATTACHMENT: Vertical T pin with open C catch.

MARKINGS: On Obverse:

3RD WARD 
POLICE 
G.W.K. 

On Reverse:

UNITED ST OF AMERICA. HA OL. 0"

ITEM NOTES: This is from a Police Badge collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. TRVCJJX TREJX17 LAHGIX5/17 SLABGEX07/05/28

CONDITION: 8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The badge has some wear, expected due to its age, but it looks stunning despite the light tarnish it has.

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