reverse.

it is very nicely made and the metal seems

to be a very tarnished, high silver content.

thanks for any thoughts.

no takers?

so what happened in 1875 that might merit

a 25 year commemorative stickpin that

honors Wilhelm?

here's hoping one of you has a thought or two.

No idea, but it could also be the 25th. aniversary or years of membership of something that started in 1900.

I'm going to pop this back up in hopes some of our Vet enthusiasts have any clue on this little pin. Mike D., out there anywhere??

Well, I have gone through my books and don't find it. It is a great looking stickpin but I lean towards it being a non-military stickpin. There are a lot of stickpins like this that were for many diffterent groups and organizations. A keeper either way in my mind! Nice looking stickpin. Mike

mike and rick-

your efforts are greatly appreciated!

i have this vision on my deathbed,

fading in and out, that kaiser bill comes

and whispers the answer to me....

someday, somewhere, someone will tell me.

thanks again!
