Thanks for your helpful replies. The pin indeed only opens to approx. 80 degrees, which I assume is better than if it opened the full 180?

Thanks everyone.

It seems the one I have isn't that common, which is great. I saw the same thing on the Imperial War Museum's website, but am unsure if this makes it any more collectable....

Is this Indian?

Apologies in advance for my ignorance. I believe this badge to be of Indian origin, but I'm clueless in terms of its approximate age, rarity and likely value. Can anyone help please?

US Pilot Wings

These wings were also among the batch of medals I bought recently. Am I right in thinking it is circa 1941 and possibly made of sterling silver?
