Does anyone recognize this pin? I'm trying to determine the date it was manufactured.
Thanks for your feedback!

Haskell horseshoe plaque. This is the earliest signature plaque, used primarily in 1948-1950 but are still in Haskell's inventory today. Haskell soldered the design plaques onto the filigree backs long before they were used on a piece of jewelry, using whichever one (horseshoe or oval) that fit best on the backing. Then, when jewelry was made, a piece with the applied plaque was used based on fit. Apparently the horseshoe was discontinued because it bent too easily when being soldered onto the backs.
It'd a lovely pin.
