I think your badge is more ER than VR , it also seems to be a thick cast copy of a badge unless the ER badges are made this way.

Your link wont let me see it Simon. Never mind, I think that I saw it when you first showed it a while back.

My point of course being that some of these badges escaped the scrutiny of "quality control". The other option is that someone was helping themselves to the rejects.........

Default Bays Badge

Personal opinion it still looks crappy to me, and I certainly would not be bidding £9-99 for it!

You could be right on both counts, this badge has been in my "I dunno" box for ages, some days I think its good, others not!
