I believe this to be an early 20th century pin. It has the old-fashion clasp on the back rather than the commercial clasp that appeared later. The simplicity of the stamping is another indication of an early age.

The pin is simple, but exquisite. One wing is slightly bent but not significantly.

Provenance: Retrieved from pawn in January 2010.
