On the left side, the pin displays a \"#1 Fan\" motif in golden letters on a textured background, a classic symbol of transatlantic fan spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visible face reveals a color combination dominated by the deep blue of the helmet, enhanced with red and white touches, while the entire pin features a golden finish, now partially patinated.
