ARTIFACT: Great 1890's - early 1900's 'Old West' Deputy Sheriff circle star badge in the "Texas" style. The badge's size and lettering are reminiscent of a Texas Ranger badge of the period and this example was most likely worn in Texas. The surrounding circle reads: "DEPUTY SHERIFF" in nicely serifed letters.
These badges came out of an old collection put together by a collector from Kansas, now deceased. As the bulk of his collection was Kansas and Colorado, it can be safely assumed that these badges were indeed worn in the Old West of their particular vintage, although I do not know exactly where any were used or collected.

VINTAGE: Circa 1890's – early 1900's.

SIZE: Approximately 1-5/8" in diameter.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Nickel plated nickel, black paint.

ATTACHMENT: Horizontal safety style pin with 'C' catch.

MARKINGS: None.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a police and law enforcement collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. VAEJX15 LFGEX12/15 SFGE2/16

CONDITION: 7+ (Very Fine+): The badge shows minor to moderate surface wear, nearly all the plated and painted details remain intact, overall very fine condition.

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
