The next batch are all re-strikes of exceedingly rare & early varieties.
All made by the same major re-strike manufacturer, with varying degrees of the tell-tale signs shown earlier.Though all are very well made as well.
These are 'fill-ins' until I can get real ones, which would be extreemly lucky & possibly very expensive, so not likely also. As I've said before ,this is really only a side-line of my main badge collecting interests.
Cheers !
