- Description
- One pin featuring a five-point star and a black jewelry case. a) A round wreath with a five pointed star crossed over another five pointed star cut out from the centre of the wreath. The top star has each point enameled a different colour (red, blue, yellow, white and green), and marked with a different gold symbol. The white centre of the star bears the letters “F”, “A”, “T”, “A”, and “L”. The wreath hangs on two linked chains from a curved gold bar with a gavel hanging from its centre. The curved gold bar is inscribed with “NO” “MT. AYLMER” and “63”. On the back of the curved gold bar is one horizontal hinged pin soldered on the back that is riveted at one end and fastens at the other end, with a swivel-locking safety clasp. b) A black folding case for the pin, that closes with a snap clasp. It closes with the top and bottom wing of the case. Upon opening a deep blue velvet lines the inside centre, left and right wings. There is a white stamp on the top wing under the clasp, unable to read inscription. 8.0 x 6.5 x 2.0 cm
