 Commemorative Set ~ Georgia Bureau of Investigation Pin & Mini Badge Pin ~ 1996 Olympics

 
This rare commemorative set features a Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) full-sized pin and a mini badge pin, specifically designed for the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games in Atlanta. 
 
Design & Features
  • Designer: Created by Special Agent Lisa B. Harris of the GBI.
  • Configuration: The set consists of a standard-sized commemorative pin and a smaller "mini" badge version, both encased in a clear Lucite (acrylic) block for display and preservation.
  • Visual Elements: The pins often feature the GBI seal or badge design integrated with Olympic themes, the 1996 torch logo.
  • Context: These were issued to commemorate the Olympic Security Team and the GBI's role in providing security during the games. 
  • Measures 3 1/4" w X  2 1/2" h
 
Collecting Context
  • Official Role: The GBI was a primary law enforcement agency for the 1996 Olympics, and these pins served as "obsolete" commemorative items rather than active-duty identification.
  • Rarity: These are highly sought after by Olympic memorabilia and law enforcement collectors, as they were often produced in limited runs specifically for personnel involved in the event.
