Nice haul today, Aussie made patches and wings

[a2jacketpatches]

Estate sale this morning, saw the wings and bought the whole box before anyone else could look. Also, a 1930's Boy Scout shirt with a 1937 Jamboree patch on it. I would have paid what I did for just the B.S.A. shirt

Killer! Each piece is worth a bit for sure.

Very nice! Those Australian made wings are tough to find....and you got two different makers and the cloth versions too!

Great find. I have a twill 5th patch exactly the same. Angus and Coote are still going strong by the way;

I wonder where or how the owner wore that cut out silver crown coin with the great 5th engraving on the back?

I don't know the actual size of the coin or the slot in it, but it could be a watch Fob. It does look large enough in the photo. The slot would be for the leather strap to the watch.

Yes, I think a watch fob.

That's an incredible haul. I'm sitting here drooling over these pics.
