"The quality and appearance of the pin is very good for the price."

— Clifford S. (4/5)

"Great hat pin medals!"

— Jim E. (5/5)

USMM helped me obtain what I wanted - not what I ordered! Great Service!

"This hat pin medal is the same high quality other hat pin medals I have purchased have been for a Vietnam Veteran hat I wear on special occasions, like Veterans Day. But it's not just the quality that is important - USMM customer service is tops! I mistakenly ordered the wrong item. When I got it, I reached out to them and they just said send it back and we'll ship you the one you wanted - which is exactly what they did! Thank you. . ."

Q&A

When you say Medal is a hat pin, do you mean it is a mini medal? Not regulation size?
These hat pins are single-piece metal pins with enamel coloring on them. They are not miniature medals, simply commemorative, service-pride pieces.
