Description

The listing, 2 vintage war pins has ended.

these pins are atleast 50 years old. They are american hince the eagle on the front and they are made from metal. they are from sometime back in the 50's-60's time I am not sure. I was told that the are from the time period when us was at war with germany.
But they are cool and would be great to anyone who collects this type of stuff.

These are common E-4 Specialist pins. Not really an antique, More like a memories pin. Sorry to tell you that.
