ITEM NOTES:
This is from a San Antonio, Texas police badge collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. PADEJX18 LCDIEX04/13/20
CONDITION:
8+ (Excellent): The badge shows minor to moderate wear with nice patina> Being such a low number, pointing to early manufacture during the long period of wear of these badges, the badge shows signs of having been refurbished, most likely by Simmang, during the period of use. Overall excellent condition.
GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
