Default Army Flying Badge - bullion lion & crown (KC)

This is my latest acquisition, just arrived in the post...

Clearly, it is the later - smaller - version of the Army Flying Badge.

Something I am noticing now that I have the wings in my hands, is that the bullion lion and crown were evidently sewn on top of an existing set of fully embroidered wings. It has been really well done. Including the backing plate, it is quite a construction!

To my eyes, looks good, but would welcome any further insights or opinions.
