Comes in 2 size's 45mm & 50mm both in A/A and silver & gilt. Large size for No1 dress hat and SD hat, smaller for beret. There is also officer bullion badges in various colours-Normal green, para, commando, infantry, armoured and I have seen a navy blue version

Is any complete? You think you have found the last one and along comes another version.
I am also looking for a 50mm A/A badge, maker marked LB&BCo (if there is is one?) I have a 45mm A/A by LB&BCo.

I would interested in knowing which headdress the brass and bronze looking badges are worn on, as I am unable to find them in the old COSA, the new JSP and the AGC Orders for Dress.

Hello Marc,
There are 3 there, 1st is a gilding metal/white metal badge(PRI?)
2nd is a all brass version(repro) 3rd "bronze" looking one is pewter. I thought they would look good in my collection so there they are
Cheers

Hi Guys,

Regarding the two sizes in A/A - only one size of badge is actually documented.

Regards

Chris
