Name American National Red Cross Nurse enrollment badge, 37186, (ARCN2.5?)


Catalog ID HCM7108
Year circa 1919-1925
Description One-inch diameter red, white and blue enameled gilded badge. Back stamped "37186" below the horizontal pin. No maker's mark.

The cross background is similar to the B.B.&B. die, but this is the only badge I've seen with no dots/pellets on the sides of "NURSE".

The pin safety closure opens on the top, so the pin swings directly out.

Series 3-4 variant? Calling it 2.5 for now. Need to investigate.
