Early on, the USVLSC existed in fifteen states where there were no federally-run life-saving stations, acting to supplement the U. S. Life Saving Service. The badge is in sterling silver and has a rippled "wave" to its surface.

VINTAGE: Circa 1900.

SIZE: Approximately 1-3/4" in height and 1-3/16" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Sterling silver, enamel.

ATTACHMENT: Horizontal pin with C catch.

MARKINGS: STERLING.

ITEM NOTES: This is from a United States Coast Guard-related collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. ebay RAJJX13 LBGEX5/13
