    Lapel pin (Is it good or bad?)

    Hi guys!

    Is this eagle pin good or bad?

    Thank you all in advance.

      I see slight variations even though it came from the same maker.
      The typeface used is different, as well as the spacing of the knurling.
      The Z on the RZM is also slightly curved. Perhaps a die shift?
      Not sure if any cause for concern - Perhaps progressively a different typeface and pin method was used in the later part of the war.

            Here's another example from a different maker, but with wide spaced knurling and a similar pin fastening method.
            Note that the typeface is different and the M character looks to be most wide.

                Some were in metal, others in plastic or composite.
