AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old pin depicting a football scene, related to Olympique de Marseille. On the visible side, the pin has the stylized shape of a trophy, with two players in action: one in white and blue, the other in red. A football, positioned above the two players, completes the composition. The upper part of the trophy features blue details on a golden visual finish, enhancing the sporting effect and the reference to the cup.

At the bottom of the pin, a legible inscription in blue reads "MARSEILLE-BELGRADE", preceded by "FINALE DES CLUBS CHAMPIONS" (CHAMPIONS CLUBS FINAL). The lettering is clear and well integrated into the whole, highlighting a significant football event between Olympique de Marseille and Belgrade. The acronym "OM" associated with the Marseille club is clearly identifiable on the white player's kit, while the word "BAR" is also visible above the ball.

The surface has an enameled appearance, with areas in blue, white, red, black, and flesh, suggesting a manufacturing typical of the 1980s-1990s, a period when this type of commemorative pin was common for major sporting events. The contrast between the golden appearance and the vivid colors accentuates the relief of the motifs and gives a retro character to the whole.

A slight patina is noticeable on the golden parts, consistent with a period object, without altering the readability of the motifs or inscriptions. No chips or major defects are apparent on the visible side; the overall appearance remains homogeneous and decorative.

This pin stands out for its dynamic representation and the highlighting of the "Marseille-Belgrade" match, emblematic of a major European Cup football encounter. The stylized cup shape and bold colors reinforce the commemorative and vintage aspect of this supporter accessory.
