I found this neat badge today metal detecting, but I'm not sure how old it is. It's a Junior Fire Dept. badge from my town of North Scituate, Rhode Island. It measures 2" tall and it might be aluminum. It's kind of heavy for aluminum, though.
I checked the patent number on the back and it was patented in 1943. That doesn't tell me much, but it does narrow it down to the last 70 years. Any guesses as to when it was issued would be appreciated.
