Hi Alan it is definitely Bronze, happy to post to you so you might handle it? In hand looks and feel good, I mean can you see anything wrong with it other than it is Bronze? If in White metal would you think it a copy or restrike?

But because it is in Bronze - it’s wrong! unfortunately I’m Biased as I seen what it came out off and what it was with! I have no other explanation as to why it is this material nor Colouring, perhaps if I where to put alongside other Bronze Officer’s badges this would help?

It’s an Enigma for now and will keep it safe, once binned I would regret if someone came up with a reason for these types of badges? Hopefully #1 post will send in picture’s of his?

Thanks for looking Alan would be nice if other’s had similar? I also have a Bronze Argyll and Sutherland unvoided, now this could be a copy or Commonwealth again a well made badge, and cannot recall where I obtained it from?

All the best Billy
