Terry, you can clearly see the round solder-stain where the correct attachment was first fitted. This was a personal conversion, or a personal replacement.

Terry,
nothing wrong with period repairs and custom pin attachments. I kinda like them that way because it shows how important the award was to the recipient rather than him throwing it in a drawer when the pin broke.
