Hello all the Gunners and other "Knowledgeables" out there. Over the last few years I have acquired job lots of Artillery badges from Australia. In an attempt to tidy up the way I've had them mounted in frames, I've removed many of them and I've come across these two nice specimens which I now believe were made for the RCA. They have the the name identically placed behind the gun trail, SCULLY Ltd. They also as you can see the curved "Ubique" scroll as per many of the War time RCA badges. What is strange to me and I'm no expert is that they both have identical threaded posts at the ends of the lower scroll. I've examined them closely and they appear to be exactly identical except as you may see from the scans, one is finished in "Fire Gilt" and the other appears to be "pickled brass". What say you all? Best regards, David J.
