So here's my problem, from the back side of this pin I'd say old judging by the trombone clasp.
Then when I turn it over it looks newer (to me at least) and it has a clear acrylic? coating.
So what you all think?? newer trying to look old or just palin old "old"??
Thanks

Trombone clasps are still in use. That pin is most likely a reproduction (but could be older) by a company that is still making pins today, using the same designs that were used in the 1930s. Pierre Bex. http://pierre-bex.com/en/enameled-brooches/

Great info realitycheck-7, just added this company to my list.
I've done a quick search and found some simular pieces.
Oh well I'm off to google again
Thanks again
