Dave's quoted price was 16 years ago and as he said that may not be correct. British cap badges rarely follow a set pattern, so I would say the cost would be in four figures at a guess.

For a police helmet plate, providing it was of a standard star pattern, you would be paying only for the centre circular die which is indeed a large die, much larger than your average army cap badge. So the cost would be quite high.

I would suggest that because of large number of items that the MoD would order, it is unlikely, as I've said above, that they would pay for any dies at all. So the cost would be nil.

Dave.
