Colombia Combat Infantry badge help please

[chippler]

Hi everyone, this badge was in a group of badges and it took me ages to identify it. It's the Colombia Combat Infantry badge, and was awarded to Colombians who fought in the Korean war. It was also awarded to some Americans who worked with the Colombians. I can't find much information about it on the internet, and was wondering if anyone knew of any more information, particularly the value?

Any help would be appreciated!

The Columbian Bn, was part of the 7th ID. There is another badge with a star at the top that were for officers. The badge was awarded and worn by 7th ID personnel. There is a thread on the U.S. Military Forum with pictures. It is a beautifully made badge and I would value it between 75-100 dollars.
