Beautiful hat DJH, proportions suit you well. I have to say, though, the tilt on your daily photos is getting a bit old. What was the name of the guy who used to do that before you? He used to post fine straw hats. Haven't seen him in a while.
There are high quality reproductions that show detail well. The vintage pins that were made of sterling (I own two) say sterling in the back very clearly. If you just assumed it was sterling, maybe saying so in the listing would be more accurate for those who are new or don't know this stuff...
Don't know where to post this so here: My name is Andrew, been lurking for a long time and decided to start posting. I love hats and I believe this thread could use a bit of honest opinions as well as the usual compliments. Hope this is welcomed in here.
Is the pin vintage and marked "Sterling" in the back of the wings? Or is this a repro made in sterling? (looks like the latter to me from the pic) Can you post a picture?
