Chauffeur's badge

Worked an old grove of cottonwood trees today along the Rio Grande just outside Albuquerque today. The only signs of human presence was an old, small corral. Lots of junk and this nice badge. Guess the trip went well.

Re: Chauffeur's badge

Neat find! If it's still got the pin on the back, it's worth over $50. :thumbsup:
 
Re: Chauffeur's badge

One must ask how a chauffer's badge got way out there; in such a desolate area?
It's a great find for sure! Congrats!

With a little bit of research, you may be able to find out who owned it?

Cool find! Makes you wonder how it got there......

Keep diggin...
 
Re: Chauffeur's badge

It'd be cool to track the owner of it and ask him/her about their life and how that badge got there. Stories are always good.
 
Re: Chauffeur's badge

You have some real history there. Wonder if you and track it to a person.

Yes, it still has the pin and clasp part. I not going to try and open it though, might break.

I think I'll try it. Have to wait until Monday, I'll call the DMV in Santa Fe see what they tell me.
