Original 1900 Paris Summer Olympics judge’s pin. Gold-plated silver pin, manufactured by Christofle, measures 23mm x 41mm, weighs approximately 10 grams, and has a ‘button-hole’ closure on the back. Front of the badge depicts Fame seated on a throne, a palm branch in her right hand and a trumpet in her left, with the artist’s name along the right edge, “1900” printed at the top, and “Jury,” at the bottom. Condition is very fine. These badges are recognized as the first metal Olympic Games participation badges.
