Neat item that came in with a load of otherwise 100% original items attached to a worn political pennant..i have seen the modern cast copies with the broad soldered pins, but this is one that i like the construction of..non magnetic die struck, with crimped in flat tip brass pins..eagle seems to have come with a brownish finish, which is worn away in spots to reveal the base metal..the reverse has a heavy build up of verdigris where it was laying against the leather of the pennants edge..
Anyhow, comments are appreciated, i have searched for an example here on the site but perhaps am looking in the wrong places...
