This is one of several USA hockey stamp pins produced for the 1980 Winter Olympic Games in Lake Placid, New York, USA. However, this is the only pewter version of which I am aware. In this pin, the Olympic rings are replaced by stars. and the official 1980 Olympic logo is absent. However, the classic goaltender stance and the USA hockey theme make this a collectible item to commemorate the United States hockey team's "Miracle on Ice" at the 1980 Winter Games. This pin is a bit more difficult to find than the painted versions, so I would value it at around $12.00 USD.
