Cased Gold Wound Badge

[tyanacek]

Hello to all,

I bought this Gold Wound Badge last month at a local gun show. It is an early-quality, unmarked '30' with a needle pin variation. This is my favorite type of Wound Badge. Hope you like it.

Best regards,

Tom

The bottom corner of the case has the label of the Central Mint in Vienna:

Wow Tom, that's a beauty. Congratulations!

Wow Tom, that's a beauty. Congratulations!

Thanks Scott,

It looks really nice alongside this marked '30', wide-pin variation. This one I've owned for about 25 years now.

Best regards,

Tom

Another beauty Tom. Upgrading my worn, round-pin 30 for a nice wide-pin 30 is on my "to-do" list.
