Default Long Beach Employee Badge

Hello everyone! Happy Fourth of July! I found an old thread on here about Long Beach employee badges, which discussed how they were pretty rare. But it did not discuss values. And I haven't found any similar badges for sale online to gauge a price. Am I allowed to ask y'all how much mine would be worth? Thank you very much for your help.

I can’t address your question, but I have (had) been looking for an Ypsilanti badge for 40 years. I saw one once in a collection, so I know they exist. Then I met a lady who worked in that plant, and she was sure she still had her badge, and I could have it, but she died before she found it.

I’m 75 now, and don’t care any more, but it was a fun quest for a while.

Those used to be pretty hot items but cooled of late imho
Unfortunately that one looks in poor condition compared to those I’ve seen and traded on. As with any collectible condition is a huge deal.
I’d say lucky to get $20
