Hi Paul
From what I have been able to find out, it was likely a one off badge for Eadie. No others are known. As stated, these could be made while you wait. It may have also been a gift to him.
It is interesting that it is a combination of bullion and standard threads.
I took photos of his beret at Pet back in the 90's and still have those, thanks.

(If you require my original attachments for your reference, let me know).
