There is also a Bronzed OSD version of this "KING'S OWN" badge and two versions of the Lancs Fus, one with a silver central device and one gold!

Best regards

I have seen a complete set , badges and coins, on display in the WOs and Sergeants' Mess at the REME depot Arborfield and they really are a good looking set when displayed well.
