    Description

    ARTIFACT: Unidentified Korean badge/pin, possibly of the 'Red Cross Society of Korea' - perhaps a nursing pin from that organization. The badge shows red and blue enamel in the center with a red cross in the blue portion and the outer edge features a nice wreath embellishment. The reverse reads: "KM35" which is mostly likely a date of 1935 and the original owner's initials, if the date is correct this badge would have been issued by the provisional government in exile/China.

    SIZE: Approximately 3/4" x 7/8"
    MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Silvered plated brass, enamel
    ATTACHMENT: Horizontal pin with "C" type catch.
