Teachers Change Lives Apple Pin Gold Tone Red Crystal GES School Award

Good used condition. Comes as shown, see the exact item you will receive in photos. This gold-tone apple lapel pin features a polished apple silhouette with a faceted red crystal center, framed by a black enamel ring reading “Teachers Change Lives” and marked “GES.” The design blends classic academic symbolism with a jewel-style centerpiece, giving it the look of a commemorative or recognition pin rather than a novelty item. The reverse shows a textured gold-tone finish with a straight post and removable clutch back. Pins like this were commonly produced in the late 20th century for schools, education programs, and professional recognition events, celebrating the lasting impact of educators through timeless imagery such as the apple motif. The combination of enamel lettering, crystal accent, and solid metal construction gives it strong visual presence despite its compact form.
