Billy Burke's USGA US Open Champion Badge
This is the famous USGA U.S. Open “Champion” Badge, which was produced for past U.S. Open Champions. Other auction houses have listed these “Champion” pins as the actual Champion’s winner’s award, but that is a little misleading. The USGA produced these Champions pins a few decades ago and awarded them to all living, past USGA Champions. They are very rare and extremely coveted by collectors.
Offered here is 1931 U.S. Open Champion Billy Burke's actual USGA "Champion" badge.
