Natal Police Headdress Badge Variations

I have been able to determine two crown variations for this badge.

These are two badges in my collection which clearly show the variations.

The size of the two examples are also different.

Any comments?

Any chance of separate close-up photos of the crowns, it's difficult to see the difference in the photo you've posted.
Thanks. Cheers,
Alex

I hope this photograph makes the variations between the crowns clearer and easier to see.

The size difference between the two badges is also very apparent.

Regards,

Will

Hi Will
Thanks, that's easier to see the difference. Must be different manufacturers. I have quite a few badges of around that period with Firmin marks on them, so maybe one was locally made and one from overseas?
Cheers,
Alex
