I was detecting an area that has a flea market set up once a year. I found this a year or so ago. It is an Army Air Force Aerial Gunners wing. It is made out of silver. I was told it was issued during WW2. This has been one of my favorite finds. It has some monetary value, but I dont think I want to sell it. BenVA

I don't know its value but I wouldn't sell it either if I had found it. That is a really cool looking pin.

Yea I looked on ebay after I found this and they were selling anywhere from $20 to $50 or so. I like it though. It should get worth more as years go by I would think. BenVA
