Vintage Montpellier PSC old crest enamel pin football rare

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old pin featuring the crest of the Montpellier football club, visible in the photo. The object has a classic shield shape, with a white background and a large, dark blue "M" in its center. Above the letter is the inscription "MONTPELLIER" in legible black capital letters. Also visible, superimposed on the letter M, is a stylized football bearing the inscription "PSC" (for "Paillade Sporting Club", the club's former name), surmounted by a stylized stag, the club's historic symbol.

The surface finish, smooth and shiny, suggests an enamel coating, typical of pins made between the 1970s and 1990s. The contours of the crest and the color separations are sharp, indicating careful manufacturing, without apparent texture or pronounced relief. The overall design presents a strong contrast between the deep blue of the letter, the white background, and the black and gold details of the motif.

As the reverse side is not visible in the photo, it is not possible to specify the type of fastener. The overall condition of the pin, on the visible side, shows some signs of wear or slight chips on the edges, which is common for a vintage item, but the legibility of the motif and inscriptions remains excellent.

This pin represents a visual testament to Montpellier's sporting heritage, with graphics typical of promotional items related to French football from the late 20th century. The object is photographed placed on an old case, highlighting its retro and decorative character.

Condition

Used item, sold as is, showing slight signs of wear visible around the edges. Front side in good overall condition with perfectly legible motif and text.
