Stogieman Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Here's an interesting 1950's Military Pilot, 3rd. Class. But wait! It has a flat space and a stamped serial number! The screw nut bears a Czech maker mark, so....... does anybody know..... is it Soviet, or a slavishly copied piece used by the Czech military???

gor Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Yes, it's Czech , they used the same design in aviation badges but with a numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 Thanks Igor, glad to have that cleared up. I'm still very happy to have this as it cost a whopping $1.98! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gor Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 It's much more rare than soviet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 The twin and I were wondering how many were issued.... this one has a pretty low number! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meyerse Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I have a pair of navigators badges (1st and 2nd class) with these Czech nuts, did they copy those as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meyerse Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Pics, nuts look to be Czech, so I suppose these are not Russian? I've seen claims both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Gaumann Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Sorry for the late reply Meyersee. They sure look like Soviet, Pobeda factory badges. What do the nuts say? I can't quite read them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meyerse Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 The nuts are czech, so I would guess the badges are as well..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
