    That's a pretty good coin day. Nice pickups.

    Ballpark, what did the car badge set you back?

    It was quite a week. Not one of those coins are in my collecting area.

    As far as the car badges, they were given to me back in 1997. The small one was to stick on your dashboard and the other to mount on a grill or badge bar. I can’t find any information about them on the internet.

    Cheers

    I was unaware of car badges.... However, I will check the antique shops around here, and I will see if there are any... never know what may show up in these shops. Cheers, RickO

    Not a car badge, but a badge I collected.

    Looking for one of those.

    Wasn't the loop added? I've only ever seen them without.

    Good question. My understanding is that a ribbon would have been inserted in the loop so the owner could wear the badge dangling from his/her neck while attending the Panama Pacific International Exhibition.

    I like everything I see ! Very nice.

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.
