that CIB looks looks like it was burned?

Hi pippinwhitepaws. just curious. what makes you think cib looks burned. It may have been, found under old tree in front yard thats pictured.thanks for your input.dinger
 

crazy find! I want to find one!
 

I believe the color of the silver for one...not black with age... from some other method.
the blue enamel is totally missing...there should be some indication it was enameled...I see nothing.
plus it looks warped...not from ripping it off a uniform, but some heat activity...

so that is why I believe a fire.
