T O P I C R E V I E Wmwr1701I've been searching to buy an astronaut corps pin for my collection (silver or gold, doesn't matter).I know there are some not so good reproductions out there, I ideally want the real thing. Please email if you have one available.p51Have any of these even gotten into collector hands? That would seem like the very last thing an astronaut would sell or give to someone...Robert PearlmanIn 2006, Regency-Superior offered Ed White's silver pin.In 2010, Bonhams offered Deke Slayton's diamond-set gold pin presented to him by the Apollo 1 crew and flown on Apollo 11.And our own SkyMan1958 has Dick Gordon's silver pin.BlackarrowI assume the gold pins would be very important to living astronauts, but not necessarily their silver pins. Al Bean threw his away!Lou ChinalYeah, all you have to do is go to the moon to get it.lspoozWell, with the next generation LRO and enough processing power, we SHOULD be able to find that pin...
