Thanks gents. It is a very nice badge. The volume of repros including brass ones on eBay does make it easy to overlook so Dean makes a valid point. But as you say David on closer inspection it does stand out from the crowd for the reasons you mention.
The large 1950s GM badge I’ve seen from the SP card actually has no reverse impression on the scroll. Whereas the small GM one is very crisp in its reverse detail. Both have large font Gaunt London marks.
Yes it was indeed in a job lot and very much a rose amongst thorns at a recent provincial sale.
