American Legion Auxiliary Pin
This item is a circular pin, likely intended to be worn on clothing, representing the American Legion Auxiliary. The pin features a central white circular field with a prominent dark blue five-pointed star. This central motif is encircled by a dark blue band with gold-colored text spelling out "AUXILIARY" at the top curve and "AMERICAN LEGION" along the bottom curve, separated by what appear to be small gold dots or embellishments. The outer edge of the pin is a ruffled or serrated gold-colored border, giving it a sunburst or cogwheel effect. The pin appears to be made of metal, likely a base metal with a gold-toned finish for the raised elements and enameling or epoxy fill for the blue and white sections. The colors are vibrant, suggesting good preservation of the enamel. There are no immediately obvious signs of significant wear or damage, such as chips in the enamel or heavy scratching on the metal, though a detailed inspection would be needed to confirm this. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for organizational pins of this type, focusing on clear legibility and durability. Based on the design, it likely dates from the mid-20th century onwards, as these types of organizational pins have maintained a relatively consistent aesthetic.
