The solid one is not correct I am afraid. Although the voided one looks ok.

Dear Alan,

Thank you for your comment.

I have seen some solid ones presented as «*war production*» badges. But the metal of this one seems to be yellowish, indeed. Copy or post war item for veterans?

Have a nice day,

Copy imo.

Every fully solid badge I’ve seen has been a repro. Note the flaw between the crown and F which is present on many RFC repros.

Dear Luke,

Thank you for your input. I will fly back it to the seller if confirmed 🙂

Have a nice day,

Although RAF and RAAF badges were made and worn part voided like that in WW2, I'd agree the 'solid' one is a reproduction, the small square above the 'F' being a tell, something in the striking (or casting) not found on genuine examples.

Wings are spot on, and genuine.

Dear Padre,

I appreciate your confirmation and explanation.

Kind regards,

I very much doubt the existence of a single original example.
