I doubt that there was an a/a version and it does not seem to have been on general issue or contracts put out for big order.
It might be worth considering that various anodised base-metal badges were privately made in the 1950s (and subsequently reproduced). It might be one of theses anodised base-metal badges that HK had seen or heard of. or he may have just got it wrong.
