This is a nice cloisonne pin from the 1984 Winter Games held in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. The pin lacks both the Olympic rings and any of the official symbols from the Sarajevo Games, but its prevalence and the fact that the manufacturer is actually identified on the back of the pin leads me to believe that it is probably an official souvenir pin from the 1984 Olympics. Given the age and quality of the pin, I'd value it at around $8.00 USD (though I've seen it sell for $15.00 USD). If you have any more information about this pin, please share with a comment to this post.
