Picked up a small job lot of three hat/beret badges :
1) A lugged 'QVC' BL standard bearer - No mark or number/letter on back. (no photo posted as normal badge).
2) A lugged RBL beret badge - Small (minature size) 'new lion head' enamel (post 1987).
3 Slidered 'QVC' BLVPF (British Legion Volunteer Police Force) - Has larger 'lion head' (held on by two tabs) , longer/thinner slider which has Registered Design number 684409 stamp. (This is the original design number found on large BL badges from 1921 - 1945 when smaller badge introduced).
NB. BLVPF badge has been repaired/soldered possibly due to one tab being damaged.
