<p>[QUOTE="D_ennyway, post: 150616, member: 2364"]I've been playing with this in my grandmother's jewelery my entire life, although she passed away before I ever garnered a curiosity about it. Pardon me if this is not the correct thread, but the only thing I have found regarding the same pin was an eBay listing that was titled "<font size="4">Trojan Brass Military KREW G-I Double Tack Antique Roman Head VTG PIN" so that's all I have to go off, as the person who sold it didn't know anything about it either according to their description. Both of my grandparents were in the military, so perhaps it was one of theirs? My grandmother was WAAC and I know my grandfather was army(he passed away 20+ years before I was born, not much known), so I would just like to know if it was likely that either one wore it or if it was just something they picked up somewhere. Sorry if I'm breaking any rules, I'm new! I apologize for the blurry pictures of the back, I can see GI but I can't make out the other marking. Thanks for any and all info![ATTACH=full]40675[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]40676[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]40677[/ATTACH] </font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
