jvw734 Posted April 21, 2021 Share #1 Posted April 21, 2021 Is this pin military or possibly civilian parachute item? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonomachi Posted April 22, 2021 Share #2 Posted April 22, 2021 That is an image of a Czechoslovakian paratrooper badge like the pair pictured below. It must be for some sort of 50 year anniversary. However per my data this badge was worn from 1945 through 1951. This button refutes this as they are saying it didn't come about until 1947 not 1945. There is a really good copy of this badge out there but they are easy to spot as they all share the same serial number of 4451. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonomachi Posted August 13, 2023 Share #3 Posted August 13, 2023 One of those copies I spoke of with serial number 4451 just sold on eBay for $173.50 (see link & photo). https://www.ebay.com/itm/145226408319?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5335821211&customid=&toolid=10001&nma=true&si=j7WdSY6mqisrDVvFgJlTKs%2BTZE4%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
