Default RAAF Kings Crown Gunner Brevet - Metal

Hi there guys

Did you see the price realised on EBAY today for a sterling silver KC Gunner brevet? It went for $765 with 4 bidders. I must have been out of the market for a while - thought $250-$300 would have been top dollar. Is the G brevet more rare than the KC pilot, E, S and N sterling silver brevets? I guess it must be or there were a couple of guys who really wanted the brevet !! Does anyone have any idea of the production runs of these 5 sterling silver KC brevets? Would be interesting to know so as to gauge future prices.

Regards

Doug

Yeah that's way over the top!!

I would value something like this at $250-300.

It's still a very hard brevet to find however (most KC crown ones don't turn up very often these days). I would put it at the same level of scarcity as the other brevets you mentioned.
