Bill,

Here is an exceptional quality Officers Canadian Artillery badge by Birks.

Made of bronzed copper with 2 pairs of tangs to the rear.

It is stamped BIRKS on the rear of the crown.

A lovely feature of this badge that I haven't encountered before on an Artillery badge is the addition of a maple leaf at either end on the CANADA banner.

regards
