AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Vintage pin depicting a stylized trophy, light blue enamel finish with golden outlines. The visible side shows a Moor's head motif, an emblematic symbol of Corsica, in the center of the trophy. Below, the inscription "75 ans Coupe de France" (75 years French Cup) and "DEMI-FINALE 82 S.C. BASTIA - O.M." is clearly legible, indicating that this is a commemorative pin from the 1982 French Cup semi-final between SC Bastia and Olympique de Marseille.

The pin is trophy-shaped with a rectangular base, the letters and outlines highlighted by a brilliant gilding. The very characteristic turquoise blue color covers most of the visible surface, providing a marked contrast with the golden edges. The graphic style, as well as the typography and iconography, are typical of the early 1980s.

The enamel surface appears smooth, with no visible cracks or chips in the photo. The inscriptions are clear and well-centered, with excellent legibility. This type of pin was generally distributed at major sporting events, serving as an official souvenir or badge of affiliation for supporters and participants.

The piece is presented on a white textile support, which enhances the brilliance of the gilding and the clarity of the enamel. No major defects are observable on the front. The ensemble immediately evokes the world of French football in the 1980s, and more particularly the historic rivalry between SC Bastia and Olympique de Marseille.

Condition
