Hungary Armoured Train #8 pin

[Gordon Craig]

Gents,

Here is a pin reportedly related to Armoured Train #8 that dates from the first Communist era in Hungary. (May to Nov. of 1919) Has anyone seen a pin like this before? I am always leery of things this rare when they pop up for auction. Neither Charles or I have seen this pin before.

Regards,

Gordon

This looks lovely. Perhaps TOO lovely.

Perhaps a COMMEMORATIVE item? Given the ephemeral nature of Comrade Kun's regime, seems improbable... even if THEY thought it was going to last forever.
