<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 37373, member: 23"]I had an original one. In my opinion, without seeing them in person, I'd guess these were reproduced for re-enactments. I work with a group of Minutemen re-enactors and I've seen the items that they purchase. There is no appreciable wear on these. If they were original and had belonged to a collector, the reason for so many different unit pins in one place, they would all have different wear patterns. They are too consistent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
