U.S. Marine Corps bronze Eagle, Globe, and Anchor (EGA) lapel pins. These pins were worn on Marine hats, shirts, or jackets and are highly collectible pieces of military history. Crafted in the 1960's, but still manufactured today. Older (WWII–Vietnam era) USMC EGA (Eagle, Globe & Anchor) collar insignia typically used clutch-back pins or earlier dome-nut screw backs, but the modern threaded post with a flat circular screw plate like yours is associated with newer, mass-produced versions (often post-1990s). The eagle symbolizes the United States, the globe signifies worldwide service, and the anchor acknowledges the Marines' naval history and amphibious nature. The EGA is an emblem of pride and a unifying symbol for all Marines, both past and present.
