Hi Pinfrin,
Thank you for the extra details and link to the history, very interesting.
I had noticed differences in regards tail up/down but did not know the significance, so thanks again for sharing that.
If anyone has further examples to share, it would be nice to compare and share, as these badges seem rather thin on the ground, so any examples we can all learn from would be a good thing.
Here is a another image of my example, hopefully a little larger to show some more detail.
Also a good detail pointed out by Khyber regarding the direction of the tusks, a detail I had not noticed. As you can see both mine are pointing in the same direction. Not sure what the reasoning is for this but an interesting detail to look out for.
Cheerio,
Roy
