1983 Pre-Olympic Lake Placid Tournament

This pin commemorates the 1983 pre-Olympic hockey tournament held in Lake Placid, New York prior to the 1984 Winter Games held in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. The pin bears the official Lake Placid Olympic logo from the 1980 Winter Games, and depicts a hockey player with the number 83 on his jersey, which also serves to indicate the year of the pin. It has a value of $7.00 USD, and is a little difficult to find.
