Product Description

This is a new 999 Emergency Dispatcher lapel pin.

Prior to 1969, Australia did not have a national number for emergency services; the police, fire and ambulance services possessed many phone numbers, one for each local unit. In 1961, the office of the PostmasterGeneral (PMG) introduced the Triple Zero (000) number in major population centres and near the end of the 1980s extended its coverage to nationwide. The number Triple Zero (000) was chosen for several reasons, one of which was that zero was closest to the finger stall on Australian rotary dial phones, so it was easy to dial in darkness.

This pin would be a great addition to any pin collectors collection.

Features:

  • Stamped in copper with Gold plating
  • Single post back
  • Butterfly clasp to hold it securely
  • 1"
