Default Why is this ATS badge not brass?
Why is this ATS badge not in brass.
Is the other version on the right sandcast? What theatre would that have been made? India/ Middle East.

Default rear of badge seems weird?
HI Eddie.
the rear seems different to brass ones taht i have seen.
I have seen some other badges that are cast and the detail is normally poor on the front, but the ATS one is as crisp as the others.
Maybe it is normal.
I am getting older

Jon,
There were a lot of these made and by many makers. I think it is just a manufactures variation.
