ARTIFACT: This is a wonderful and rare second issue police badge from Reno, Nevada. Although Reno, Nevada had law enforcement much earlier in its history, it did not have an actual Police Department until 1903. This large brass badge is most likely one of the first issued in Reno. The badge has a separately applied eagle and number, with a nice old sturdy T pin and tongue-type C catch. It is numbered 9 at center.

VINTAGE: Circa 1910.

SIZE: Approximately 3-1/8" in height and 2-1/2" in width.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Brass.

ATTACHMENT: Nice old sturdy T pin and tongue-type 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. VCEJX12 LABGEX1/13 TRABGEX9/16

CONDITION: 7+ (Very Fine+): The badge shows some small spots of light to medium wear.

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